GNA has been selected among the excellences of the Paolo Mascagni Award 2025, the recognition promoted by Confindustria Emilia in collaboration with Il Resto del Carlino, now in its fourteenth edition. An initiative that celebrates local companies distinguished by growth, innovation and their ability to communicate their daily commitment to creating value.
This year’s edition saw the participation of 30 companies, featured during a special evening held on Tuesday, November 19 at the Confindustria Emilia headquarters and later at the Teatro Duse, as part of the event “Codice Emilia”. A prestigious setting designed to share success stories and spread business culture beyond the boundaries of the association community.
An important milestone for GNA
For GNA, the selection represents a recognition that confirms the company’s solidity and the value of the path undertaken in the field of automatic packaging machines.
Since its foundation, GNA has developed solutions dedicated to food and non-food packaging, with a strong focus on sustainability. This commitment is reflected in design and operational choices fully aligned with the company’s guiding ESG principles.
Among the most relevant initiatives:
- the use of high-efficiency IE3 motors to reduce the energy consumption of the machines;
- the design of systems that encourage the use of natural, recyclable or low-impact materials;
- support for the spread of renewable energy, thanks to the participation of a GNA partner in the founding of the CER’O2z Energy Community, active in the production and sharing of clean energy.
Innovation, expertise and an international vision
The strength of GNA lies in the skills of the people who are part of it: a specialised team with advanced technical expertise and a strong openness towards international markets, which today represent an essential part of the company’s business.
Every year, GNA invests in the development of new technologies, with the aim of offering more efficient, versatile and sustainable machines, able to compete with the best players in the sector and to respond quickly to the needs of a constantly evolving market.
A stimulus to keep growing
The selection for the Mascagni Award 2025 is both a recognition of the work carried out over the years and an incentive for GNA to continue with determination along its chosen path: innovating, investing in people, promoting business culture and contributing to the development of the territory.
GNA thanks Confindustria Emilia and Il Resto del Carlino for the opportunity and renews its commitment to bringing the value of Italian packaging to the world, combining technology, quality and sustainability.
