Dear Customers and Friends,

it is with great regret - and a sense of responsibility - that we communicate that our companies will not be present at Ipack-Ima 2022, scheduled for May at Fiera Milano.

We are perfectly aware of the fact that this significant appointment, after the past two long and challenging years, would have been an opportunity to meet both customers and friends, to present our latest company innovations, designed and built to enhance your business, and developments in the milling sector that you do not know of yet.

The sense of responsibility towards everyone, together with the awareness that limiting contacts is the correct thing to do in respect of those who continue dealing with the pandemic every day, have prevailed.

Therefore, we could not ignore the emergency that is still affecting the whole world today, just as we could not neglect the human aspect of the moment.

We therefore decided, just as we did two years ago, to contribute with a donation to support those who each day, still today, dedicate their commitment to finding the right solutions and means for returning to normalcy, safeguarding collective health alongside countries’ economies.

We hope to see you soon, as soon as the health situation will allow us to experience a serene conviviality, to finally be able to meet face to face and show you, not only virtually, the latest goals of our innovative paths.

 We conclude with the words of Sandro Pertini, great President of the Italian Republic, which were spoken in a now distant past but, as often happens for all “great people”, words that perfectly interpret the global sentiment even today:

“I am proud to be an Italian citizen, but I also feel like a citizen of the world, so that when a man in a corner of the earth fights for his freedom and is persecuted because he wishes to remain a free man, I am at his side with all my solidarity as a citizen of the world.”

A great “virtual” goodbye.

Sergio Antolini and Alberto Antolini
