Fedrigoni spa, which makes value-added products for packaging, graphics, and pressure-sensitive labels, has announced the opening of a new slitting and distribution center for the self-adhesive products division in Dobroszyce, Poland.
The new terminal will make it possible to meet the market demands for Poland and the Eastern and Central European regions. Featuring a 2m-wide slitting capability, the facility will also offer a net width service on a selection of specific materials.
“Our intention is to offer all customers an ever-greater reliability and quality of service: being closer to each of them will allow us to better meet their needs and satisfy them in a timely manner,” said Fulvio Capussotti, executive vice president Arconvert Ritrama, part of the Fedrigoni Group. “The operation is consistent with the Group’s growth strategy in the increasingly promising sector of self-adhesive labels and is in line with the geographic diversification plan to increase penetration in the global market.”
Fedrigoni Group is a global leader for labels in the wine sector and plays a leading role in the food, household, and logistics sectors, as well as in high tech adhesive films for pharma, beverage, and personal care products, providing solutions for self-adhesive labels with high technological and aesthetic content as well as self-adhesive materials for visual and promotional communication.
The Covid-19 pandemic led to the country-wide lockdown on 25 March 2020. It will be two years tomorrow as I write this. What have we learned in this time? Maybe the meaning of resilience since small companies like us have had to rely on our resources and the forbearance of our employees as we have struggled to produce our trade platforms.
The print and packaging industries have been fortunate, although the commercial printing industry is still to recover. We have learned more about the digital transformation that affects commercial printing and packaging. Ultimately digital will help print grow in a country where we are still far behind in our paper and print consumption and where digital is a leapfrog technology that will only increase the demand for print in the foreseeable future.
Web analytics show that we now have readership in North America and Europe amongst the 90 countries where our five platforms reach. Our traffic which more than doubled in 2020, has at times gone up by another 50% in 2021. And advertising which had fallen to pieces in 2020 and 2021, has started its return since January 2022.
As the economy approaches real growth with unevenness and shortages a given, we are looking forward to the PrintPack India exhibition in Greater Noida. We are again appointed to produce the Show Daily on all five days of the show from 26 to 30 May 2022.
