Omet Suzhou has officially moved into new headquarters, signalling the Italian printing equipment manufacturer’s commitment to China as part of its international growth strategy.
Omet has been present in Suzhou as of 2007. Since then, the company’s Chinese subsidiary has expanded its footprint and has installed nearly 100 printing machines in China for applications including high-quality labels, cosmetic packaging, and flexible food packaging.
The new facility is located in Pingqian Industrial Park, Wujiang District, Suzhou, in China’s Jiangsu Province.
The new Omet Suzhou facility provides extra space and capabilities that support future growth in the local market.
“The new facility will strengthen the integration of the local supply chain and reaffirms the company’s long-term commitment to the Chinese market,” added Fabio Valle, General Manager, Omet Suzhou.
“The Chinese market has become a key pillar of Omet’s global strategy. We firmly believe that combining Italian technology with China’s industrial capabilities can create an extraordinary competitive advantage.”
Omet Group CEO Antonio Bartesaghi officially opened the new facility almost 20 after his father, Angelo Bartesaghi, inaugurated the company’s first Chinese subsidiary.
He said, “We are proud of this achievement and look to the future with confidence, ready to continue our journey driven by innovation and excellence.”
The opening ceremony was attended by employees, partners and representatives of Italian and Chinese institutions, including: Sun Daoxun, Secretary, CPC Wujiang District Committee; Stefania Mortelliti, Commercial Consul, Consulate General of Italy in Shanghai; Zhang Yan, Deputy Mayor, Wujiang District People’s Government; and Lorenzo Bali and Mattia Marino, Vice Presidents of the China-Italy Chamber of Commerce for Suzhou and Shanghai, respectively.
