Piovan is ready for growth, says North American CEO

  • Summary

  • John Erkert, Piovan’s regional CEO for North America, expects the plastics industry economy to accelerate in 2025.

    Piovan is world’s biggest supplier of auxiliary equipment to the plastics industry. The Italian-based company had revenue from its polymer related businesses of $574.4 million in 2023, with $333.9 million coming from North American sales. Its brands include UnaDyn, Conair, Doteco and Thermal Care.

    In this PMM Insight interview, Erkert said there has been increased interest in Piovan products since NPE but not a bump in sales. He said uncertainty in the economy caused by the U.S. presidential election is currently holding back sales.

    Erkert also predicted more manufacturing of Piovan products in North America in the future.
