A new Technical Director for Sipack

Through this interview, we introduce our community to the new Technical Director, Gianluca Giometti, who officially joins the Sipack team. His arrival marks the beginning of a new chapter for the technical area—one driven by development, innovation, and a clear vision for the company’s future, fully aligned with a group-wide corporate culture increasingly focused on synergy and integration.

Your professional journey within the Italia Technology Alliance group has now led you to take on a new role. Which skills you have developed will be most useful in this new experience?

My career serving companies strongly oriented toward automation has been very long. I began my career as an electronics technician, but what has always driven me forward is a constant curiosity for research and innovation. The desire to understand how to best automate processes and develop increasingly efficient, cutting-edge machinery has been the common thread of my growth, with the goal of responding to market challenges with innovative and practical technical solutions.

You are joining SIPACK at a key moment of major relaunch. What are your first priorities as Technical Director?

The current priority at SIPACK is to work on engineering, with the aim of structuring the company and increasing the technological level and, consequently, the range of products and services. It is an important challenge, which I consider one of the main objectives for the coming years.

What kind of Technical Director do you want to be? Where would you like to take the technical area over the next 2–3 years?

My goal is to lead Sipack’s technical area by implementing high-quality technological solutions capable of combining innovative value, operational robustness, and cost sustainability. I believe it is essential that every phase of ideation and design takes real feasibility into account, also through comparison with approaches and solutions from different sectors. To remain competitive, it is necessary to move beyond the established mindset of “we’ve always done it this way,” responding to the market with creativity, flexibility, and innovation.
