Marco Calcagni, OMET Sales and Marketing Director, comments on the company’s 2024 results and takes a look at the future.
Technological innovation and modularity remain central elements in OMET’s strategy, enabling the company to respond to market changes with cutting-edge solutions that anticipate future needs. Guided by a vision centred on sustainability and efficiency, OMET positions itself as a strategic partner for its clients, ensuring flexibility, customisation and competitiveness.
In recent years, the markets we serve have undergone profound transformation, accelerated by the pandemic, which has reshaped supply and demand dynamics. OMET has responded decisively, presenting solutions that combine speed, adaptability, and high performance. Participation in major international industry trade shows in 2024 confirmed this leadership, drawing significant interest in OMET’s exhibition strategy, which focused on showcasing technological components rather than complete machines. This approach highlights the company’s ability to innovate and meet increasingly complex market demands.
Innovative technologies for a sustainable future
Collaboration in the digital and hybrid printing sector has been one of OMET’s major achievements, culminating in the launch of an innovative flexo-digital machine. OMET continues to invest in strategic partnerships, such as the collaboration with PRB Innovation for the Tissue division, which optimised the production chain, reducing coordination times by 20%.
Simultaneously, converting solutions like the ASV Line offer a tangible example of how modularity and sustainability can coexist. These lines provide speed, cleanliness, and energy efficiency, enabling the seamless integration of new technologies without disrupting production processes. The recent introduction of the ASZ Line has further raised industry standards, strengthening OMET’s position as a technological leader.
The Innovation Park and the role of digitalisation
At the heart of this strategy lies the Innovation Park, OMET’s modern showroom designed as a hub for events, collaborations and the development of innovative solutions in the Printing division. This facility underscores the importance of building a strong network of partners and suppliers to jointly address future challenges.
Completing this framework is the digital platform Sfera, which represents a revolution in how production is conceived and managed. Sfera goes beyond automation, paving the way for integrated and highly customised production, reducing waste, and improving overall efficiency.
Looking ahead: innovation as a guide
OMET’s approach is clear: understand and anticipate customer needs, exceeding their expectations. This guiding principle enables the company to grow and deliver tailor-made solutions that generate competitive advantages in the global market. With a vision focused on continuous evolution and a commitment to sustainability, OMET reaffirms its position as a leader in building a more innovative and efficient productive future.
