Ucima: Matteo Gentili elected as the new Chairman

Matteo Gentili (58) was officially elected Chairman of Ucima during the association’s annual meeting recently held at Acetaia Leonardi in Magreta (Modena). He takes over from Enrico Aureli, CEO of Robopac and OCME, who served as the association’s Chairman for the four-year period 2016 to 2020.

Matteo Gentili  is chairman of TMC (Tissue Machinery Company), a company based in Castel Guelfo (Bologna) that produces and markets automatic machines for the packaging and management of Tissue and Personal Care products. In 2018, the company joined the IMA Group.

Matteo Gentili: “Following an intense election campaign, an agreement was reached for an alternating chairmanship of Ucima. I will serve as chairman for the first two years of the four-year term and will then hand over to my colleague Riccardo Cavanna, who for the time being will serve as vice-chairman in charge of association development.”

Matteo Gentili named Roberto Paltrinieri from Tetra Pak as another vice-chairman with responsibility for technological aspects. Luciano Sottile from Goglio, a member of Ucima’s Board of Directors and former vice chairman, has been tasked with overseeing promotional activities.

Another announcement made during the meeting was the change in the Association’s directorship, with Mario Maggiani, 53, Director General of Amaplast, to take over the position of Director General of Ucima from Paolo Gambuli.
