Vitaliano Torno elected President of the European Container Glass Federation

Brussels, 4 March 2015

Vitaliano Torno, Managing Director, O-I Europe – one of Europe’s leading glass packaging manufacturers – has been elected President of FEVE – the European Container Glass Federation – at its FEVE Board of Directors meeting in Brussels on February 12th. The European container glass industry directly employs some 50,000 people in more than 160 plants producing a wide range of glass packaging products for food and beverages, perfumery, cosmetics and pharmacy as well as glass tableware for European and global customers. FEVE members have plants in 23 European Member States.

I am eager to put my experiences in the industry at the service of FEVE members. I believe in a strong future of glass as the packaging material of reference. However, we need to challenge ourselves to ensure we meet our customers and consumers’ needs” says Vitaliano Torno. “Glass is made from nature, it is safe for health, it is infinitely recyclable, loved and trusted by people; these benefits are sometimes taken for granted, but actually they make our packaging solutions unique. As an industry association, it is our role to make those benefits more visible and valued”.
