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.

Latamcan, the leading technical conference for the metal packaging and canmaking industry in Latin America, turned to be a tremendous success for Pneumofore. Held this year in Mexico City, the event brought together canmakers, suppliers, and key technology leaders from across the region. Throughout the exhibition and conference, Pneumofore received widespread appreciation from visitors for the team’s expertise and professionalism, further reinforcing its reputation as a trusted technology partner for energy-efficient vacuum and compressed air solutions in the can industry.

This edition featured the presence of Pneumofore President, Eng. Daniel Hilfiker, underlining the strategic importance of the Latin American market for the company. Pneumofore was also supported by its partner Airvacs, which provides fast, reliable, and cost-effective service to customers across Latin America and Europe, ensuring operational continuity and strong local support.

During the technical conference, Andrés Marcelo Gomez Ramones, Area Sales Manager for Latin America, hold the presentation “The Invisible Backbone of Production – Hidden Drivers of Sustainable Canmaking.” The session highlighted how utilities such as vacuum and compressed air systems can account for up to 50% of a can production plant’s total electricity consumption, and how misjudgments in system design or equipment selection can silently but steadily erode efficiency and increase operational costs. Drawing on real-world examples and decades of experience, the presentation offered practical strategies to optimize pneumatic systems and support sustainable, high-efficiency can production.

With its participation at Latamcan 2026, Pneumofore reaffirms its commitment to delivering reliable, energy-saving, and sustainable solutions for canmakers throughout Latin America.

Pneumofore proudly presents its latest video, “100 Years of CO₂ Reduction”, a powerful interview and a strong statement of the company’s long-standing commitment to environmental sustainability in industrial production. The video explores one of Pneumofore’s founding missions: minimizing the environmental impact of vacuum pumps and compressed air systems.
The video addresses a critical, often overlooked fact: today, pneumatic equipment account for nearly 15% of the world’s total electricity consumption, generating a significant share of CO₂ emissions. Since 1923, Pneumofore’s mission has been to reverse this trend by designing energy-efficient, durable vacuum pumps and compressors solutions. The company’s Rotary Vane technology ensures constant efficiency over time, helping industries cut both emissions and operational costs. Every kilowatt hour saved with Pneumofore machines prevents 0,5 kg of CO₂ emissions. This is not just about efficiency, it’s about environmental responsibility.
In the video, President Eng. Daniel Hilfiker explains the technical and ethical foundations of this approach. Unlike conventional pneumatic machines that degrade quickly and demand frequent overhauls, Pneumofore vacuum pumps and compressors are built for decades of constant efficiency and performance, resulting in the lowest Life Cycle Cost in the market.
Eng. Hilfiker also highlights Pneumofore’s firm stance against planned obsolescence that reflects a deep-rooted belief that engineering must serve both people and planet. With over 100 years of innovation, Pneumofore continues to lead with purpose in sustainable pneumatic solutions, with values that remain the guiding force behind every machine designed to create a better tomorrow.
