Nancy Mammaro elected President of GIMAV

On 12 June 2026, the General Assembly of GIMAV elected Nancy Mammaro, President and CEO of MAPPI International, to lead the Italian Association of Suppliers of Machinery, Plants, Accessories and Technologies for Glass Processing for the 2026–2030 term.

For MAPPI, this is a source of deep pride. The person who has led our company for more than thirty years now takes on the responsibility of representing an entire industry, at a time marked by industrial transformation, energy transition and new competitive dynamics in global markets.

Under her leadership, MAPPI has grown into an international benchmark in furnaces for glass tempering and lamination, strengthening its presence in foreign markets and particularly in North America, where the company operates directly. Since the beginning of 2025, MAPPI has been part of the Voilàp Group, within which it continues its path of technological development and international expansion. This concrete experience — built on markets, customers and the day-to-day management of a company — is the foundation on which Nancy Mammaro builds her vision for GIMAV.

A vision focused on pragmatism. A GIMAV closer to companies, able to listen to the real needs of the supply chain and turn them into action, while also acting as a guarantor and authoritative voice for the industry in the key forums, in Italy and worldwide. Among the priorities of her mandate are the strengthening of representation and the expansion of the association’s membership base, the consolidation of services for companies, a more proactive approach to internationalisation, and the evolution of VITRUM into an international hub for the glass economy.

Supporting the President will be a team composed of Nicola Lattuada, Deputy Vice President, Francesca Antonini and Matteo Padovan, with the support of the new General Council and the General Management led by Lucia Masutti.

Nancy Mammaro has the pride and best wishes of the entire MAPPI team and the Voilàp Group, confident that she will put her experience at the service of the growth of the entire Italian glass industry.
