A strategic appointment to strengthen ties with South America and reaffirm Made in Italy in the world

In collaboration with the Italian Trade Agency (ITA), from June 29 to July 2, 2022, GIMAV will be accompanying its member companies to Glass South America 2022, the glass industry’s benchmark event in Latin America. This is a meeting that no market professional seeking new technologies, customers and networking opportunities will want to miss.

Glass South America will be focusing on technology and design for residential construction, architecture, furnishings and the automotive industry. The São Paulo Expo pavilions will be showcasing the world’s top glass technologies. Italy in particular will have an exhibition area dedicated entirely to its products of excellence. At the Italian Pavilion, with stands covering nearly 300 m2, visitors will be able to learn about the latest innovations in the Italian market and see the machinery on display with their own eyes.

“We will be in São Paulo to show Glass South America’s international audience the distinctive qualities of our glass supply chain,” said GIMAV Director Fabrizio Cattaneo. “Considering the ‘glass processing technologies’ sector trade flows, Brazil ranks 15th overall. Specifically, the share of total trade between Italy and Brazil comes to about 46.1 million euro, with a strong predominance of Italian exports, which amount to 45.6 million euro (2.7% of total Italian exports) and a positive trade balance of more than 45 million euro.

Talking about Made in Italy in South America today still means prestige, quality, and excellence. At such a delicate moment in history, by participating in this new edition we want to launch a clear message of a new beginning and confidence to the international public,” concluded Cattaneo.

Along with VITRUM and ITA, GIMAV will be present with an institutional area in the Italian Pavilion (stand J016D), where visitors will be able to gather information about the imminent The Italian Glass Weeks, the first Italian event dedicated to industrial and artistic glass, to be held in Milan from September 10 to 18 and then in Venice from September 17 to 25, 2022, celebrating the International Year of Glass in the country that has historically been synonymous with its excellence.

Thirteen GIMAV member companies will be taking part in Glass South America at the Italian group stand, some of whose contributions are listed below.
