During glasstec 2014, the new Vitrum management team organized a perfectly Italian-style event for the international press to illustrate the main themes of the 19th Vitrum (a biennial international trade show specialized in machinery, equipment and systems for flat, bent and hollow glass and in glass and processed products for industry), which is slated for October 6 to 9, 2015 at the Fiera Milano exhibition complex in Rho.
This is how Aldo Faccenda -elected President of Vitrum in October- described the main objectives of Vitrum at the first appointment with the international press after the buoyant market mood experienced at the Düsseldorf exhibition: “Vitrum will be the number one appointment in 2015 to present the finest offerings from the industry to leading buyers from around the world; a place where you can find quality technology, research and innovation, and cutting-edge products from around the world. This will be the strength of Vitrum 2015”.
Dino Zandonella Necca, Vice President of Vitrum, opened another window on Vitrum 2015: “We are all working with President Aldo Faccenda, Vice President Cinzia Schiatti and the Vitrum management team, to make the next exhibition the best: the 2015 event will be particularly important because it will be taking place during Expo 2015 in Milan and because of the new technological advances that have been made in the entire industry. It will be a unique experience that will leave a lasting impression”.
A particularly important fact is its timing during the Universal Expo 2015, which will place Milan under the international spotlight and welcome visitors keen to discover and appreciate high-caliber offerings from Italy and around the world in a one-of-a-kind setting. An attention-grabbing setting, according to Alessandro Crescentini from the OCMI Group, spokesman on this occasion for the Gimav Hollow Glass Group President Michele Gusti, who pointed out the efforts being made to dedicate more space to hollow glass at Vitrum 2015.
Vitrum 2015 will therefore focus on innovation and technology in every sphere of the glass industry, including new materials, design and architecture.
As the exhibitors and visitors at previous exhibitions stated, the event is a one-stop shopping point for a carefully selected public in search of quality products. The latest exhibitions drew exhibitors from 28 countries and more than 20,000 visitors, and totaled 29,000 visitors in 2013 as a result of the partnership with the Mecha-Tronika expo.
