Family-owned Zambelli has been in business thirty-five years and exports 80% of its production, concentrating in the food, beverage, personal care and pharmaceutical markets. With new state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities about to open in Italy, already existing turnkey systems capability will be greatly expanded. The U.S. operation is modeled after Zambelli operations in the United Kingdom and Poland.
Arnold Lawner has been named General Manager of the newly formed U.S.operation. Mr. Lawner has over twenty years experience in the packaging industry, most recently as European Sales Manager for the SWF Companies and formerly Director of Sales and Marketing for the Packaging Systems Division of Barry-Wehmiller.
