Under the slogan ‘Inspiring the future since 1923’, the Pneumofore company welcomed its network of distributors and partners from all over the world to Turin to celebrate 100 years of history. The meeting took place in Turin and was attended by 16 different nations from all corners of the globe. The event provided an opportunity to retrace the company’s historical background, its evolution over the decades and international expansion under the guidance of the current generation of Swiss engineers.


In addition, the company also presented its plan for the coming years with significant investments in the training of the next generation. The event was also a great networking opportunity to further strengthen the collaboration between Pneumofore and its international partners, who contribute greatly to the company’s global success.

Leveraging 100 years of experience in innovation and technical excellence, Pneumofore was one of the keynote speakers at Latamcan, the technical conference and exhibition for can makers and suppliers operating in the Latin American metal packaging industry. Held in Mexico City, the event is one of the main international conferences and trade fairs in the sector, growing in attendance and importance year after year.


In 2023, on the occasion of Pneumofore’s centennial celebration, CEO Rolf Hilfiker gave an insightful presentation on longevity design and manufacturing rules and practices that maximize the life expectancy of machinery. Since its foundation, the company’s actions have been guided by respect for nature, producing machines that minimize the carbon footprint of industrial vacuum and compressed air systems.


With an ongoing commitment to innovation since 1923, Pneumofore is leading the way to lasting solutions to the industry’s most important energy-saving and sustainability challenges. The event represented a significant occasion to meet the most important can makers, some of whom have been satisfied customers of Pneumofore vacuum pumps and rotary vane compressors for decades. Visitors expressed great interest in the company’s latest innovations and solutions, all based on lower life-cycle cost.


In can plants, the cost of utilities can affect 50% of the plant’s total energy consumption. This deserves attention. In fact, all too often, purchase negotiations for vacuum and compressed air equipment focus solely on the initial price. The purchase price is an immediate fact of life, but huge savings can be achieved in the medium and long term if key factors such as total energy consumption, maintenance costs, machine reliability and durability, and consistent efficiency over time are taken into account.
