The company intends to use the plant to further expand its position in the Italian market.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Maximilian Heindl, Chairman of the Management Board of <a href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/?s=progroup\">Progroup<\/a>, emphasised the strategic importance of the project during his speech at the groundbreaking ceremony: \u201eItaly is Europe's largest market for corrugated board formats. It offers us - and our customers - very promising prospects. With Progroup's latest sheet feeder plant in Cessalto, we have reached another important milestone in our growth story. This fills me with pride and joy.\u201c The new plant in the Veneto region complements the Progroup sheet feeder plant in Drizzona, which has been in operation since 2018. It provides the company with a <strong>Strategic position for sustainable growth in Italy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201eThe importance of this investment cannot be emphasised enough. Not only will it have an immediate positive impact by creating new jobs, but it will also further strengthen the foundations of the industrial structures already present in our economic fabric. The presence of reliable companies like Progroup is crucial to the prosperity of our community. They are not only carriers of economic development, but also of values such as reliability and expertise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Emanuele Crosato<\/strong>, Mayor of the municipality of Cessalto<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Progroup is creating around 60 new jobs with the state-of-the-art plant in the industrial area of the municipality of Cessalto. The first corrugated board formats are expected to roll off the production line as early as mid-2025. Directly adjacent to the Progroup plant, a packaging park is being built by local Progroup partner Ondulkart. This will enable Progroup to deliver the corrugated board formats \u201ejust in time\u201c via a direct connection to the Ondulkart plant, where the Italian manufacturer will process them into packaging. Thanks to the close <strong>interlinking of the logistics and production processes of both companies, CO<sub>2<\/sub>- emissions and freight costs saved<\/strong>. This results in an extremely sustainable packaging park.<\/p><div class=\"packa-in-post-alle\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"packa-2348530604\"><div id=\"packa-365409772\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/newsletter\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"PJ Self-promotion English 03\"><!--noptimize--><img src=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png 840w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-18x5.png 18w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-332x83.png 332w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-664x166.png 664w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-688x172.png 688w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" width=\"840\" height=\"210\"  style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" \/><!--\/noptimize--><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<blockquote><p>\u201eHere, two production steps that directly follow each other are brought together in trusting and long-term partnerships: the production of corrugated board formats and packaging.
