Nilpeter has announced a strengthened customer engagement program in the United States for 2026, centered on a series of focused, high-value events designed to bring converters closer to Nilpeter technology, expertise, and real-world production possibilities.

Nilpeter has announced plans to host its first event at its Cincinnati, OH, USA facility on April 22, 2026, with a focus on flexible packaging production and food safety applications. The event will showcase the latest innovations from Nilpeter’s FA-Line series and feature expert presentations from GEW, ACTEGA, Multi-Plastics, and Karlville.

As a headline keynote speaker, Kevin Kollman, president of Prime Packaging, will share his insights and market perspective, bringing valuable real-world experience to the program.

Building on the company’s ambition to create more tailored and educational customer experiences, Nilpeter will host a number of events in the US during 2026. These will take place at Nilpeter’s Technology Center in Cincinnati, OH, where multiple presses are installed for live demonstrations, application development, and customer collaboration.

Lenny DeGirolmo, president, Nilpeter USA, says, “The US market is strategically important for Nilpeter, and the best way to support our customers is to open our doors and show what we can do – not in theory, but in real production conditions. When customers can see the presses running, bring their own jobs and questions, and spend time with our specialists, the conversation becomes much more meaningful. These events are about creating closer partnerships, sharing knowledge, and helping converters make confident decisions that improve performance and competitiveness. Cincinnati gives us a unique platform for that, and we are excited to welcome both existing customers and new prospects throughout 2026.”

Martin Teilberg, global marketing manager at Nilpeter, adds, “We have been exploring the idea of activating our Technology Centers much more strongly for a long time, and 2026 is where that ambition becomes very tangible in the US. With a number of events, we can invite customers into an environment that is built for learning, dialogue, and live production insight. In Cincinnati, we are able to demonstrate flexible packaging solutions and expanded gamut capabilities in real conditions, with time to go deep into applications and optimization.”
