Pneumofore successfully participated in Glassman Latin America 2026, the international trade show and technical conference dedicated to the glass industry. Held in Mexico City, the event brought together leading glassmakers, technology providers, and industry specialists from across the Americas, confirming its role as a key meeting point for the global hollow and container glass manufacturing sector.
At the exhibition, Pneumofore showcased its advanced Rotary Vane vacuum and compressed air solutions engineered specifically for the glass industry, attracting strong interest for their high energy efficiency, reliability, and long operating life. The event also represented a key opportunity to strengthen the company’s presence in Latin America, supporting new business development while reinforcing relationships with existing customers.
Pneumofore’s participation was highlighted during the opening day ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by CEO Mr. Rolf Hilfiker, underlining the company’s strategic commitment to the region and to the growing Latin American glass market.
Another major highlight was the attendance of Mr. Andrés Gómez, Area Sales Manager, as keynote speaker at the technical conference with the presentation “Pressure Points: Hidden Savings in Pneumatic Solutions”. The presentation focused on how vacuum and compressed air systems are essential yet often underestimated utilities in hollow glass manufacturing. Improper sizing or equipment selection based only on initial purchase price can generate long-term inefficiencies, increased downtime and higher energy consumption. Pneumofore demonstrated how properly engineered pneumatic systems ensure stable production, lower operating costs and reduced environmental impact.
The company also benefited from the valuable support of its partner Ontama, which provides after-sales service and technical assistance across Mexico and South America for the glass industry, strengthening customer proximity and regional support capabilities.
With its participation at Glassman Latin America, Pneumofore continues to reinforce its position as a leading supplier of energy-efficient vacuum pumps and compressed air solutions for the global glass manufacturing industry.
