ILIP FOCUSES ON THE UNITED STATES WITH THE PMA FRESH SUMMIT IN ATLANTA

The company confirms the importance of exports and goes back to the American event after 5 years

BOLOGNA (22 October 2015) – Good prospects for the American market and strong dollar, which means European prices are back to competitive levels. These are the reasons why ILIP is returning to the PMA Fresh Summit after 5 years. This is the main produce event in North America, and this year it will take place in Atlanta from 23rd to 25th October.

The leading European company in the sector of thermoformed plastic packaging will be displaying its main products at booth 5161, including a whole range of fruit nest trays and clamshell punnets for grapes, particularly requested in the USA. There will also be a wide range of heat-sealable r-PET punnets, such as the “TS” series, designed for sensitive produce such as berries and cherry tomatoes, thanks to technical-functional solutions that can preserve them throughout the production chain.

“The American market has a significant potential for this type of packaging, and we’re sure we’ll meet with interest in the possibility of supplying compostable PLA packaging and products 100% made of super clean r-PET”, explains Mauro Stipa, ILIP’s export sales manager for fresh produce packaging. “For us, attending PMA is crucial: it’s the most professional window in the world of American produce. We are becoming more and more focused on exporting our products, and these trade fairs boast not only American operators, but also hundreds of contacts from Central and South America, Canada, and Asian countries”.
