As an exclusive representative in Bobst's Peru, Distribuidora Multigráfica contributed in large part to the success of the Bobst & Partners Roadshow Peru 2017, recently held in Lima.

"We are very happy with the development of this event, the assistance of our clients and friends, and the representation we are performing. Our goal was to demonstrate the technological advances that Bobst provides by delivering quality, productivity and savings”, said Angel Fulgueiras Gutiérrez, general manager of Distribuidora Multigráfica.

He assured that Bobst is a multinational company with 125 years of operations and that leads the technological innovation in its sector.

This firm is one of the world's leading suppliers of equipment and services for packaging and label manufacturers in folding cartons, corrugated cardboard and flexible materials.

"Bobst's solutions accompany the development of packaging in the plastic and food industries. Before the market demanded cardboard and cartons to pack, now this function is made with all kinds of plastics. In that sense, this manufacturer is a leader in that field”, said Fulgueiras.

Distribuidora Multigráfica has been a business partner of Bobst for 20 years. As a result, the executive said: "For our part, we sale the machines in the Peruvian market at different levels and customers, as well as their requirements. Bobst is a leader in the diffusion of investment in all the companies".

Likewise, he indicated that the Bobst technology brings to the Peruvian industry high quality, almost no waste and very significant savings in its production. "A Bobst machine produces 80 % more than other branded equipment that is marketed", he noted.

"The plastic is fantastic"
On the other hand, Angel Fulgueiras commented that for geopolitics and its strategic location, Peru would become the future "supplier of the world".
"How are products packaged for agro export? They are usually packaged with plastic-based products. Therefore, the growth of agro export is accompanied by the development of the plastic industry”, he said.
In dialogue with Plast Peru News, the manager of Distribuidora Multigráfica said: “In general, expectations are good because plastic is fantastic, as well as being smart, biodegradable and recyclable. Without plastic, we would have no life or food”.

He warned that environmental pollution with plastic is caused by poor waste management, "but if we had a correct recycling arrangement and / or the products were biodegradable, we would not have any problems”.

With education -continued the interviewee-, civility, discussion materials in secondary schools and explaining the authorities could improve the current situation.

Finally, Fulgueiras Gutiérrez emphasized that in Spain the worm moth worm is used to biodegrade resistant plastics, machines that remove plastic waste from the oceans and every day more biodegradable products are used worldwide. "There are already initiatives", he said.
