Viappiani produces labels for food containers like tubs, lids and buckets, as well as labels for the cosmetics and household goods industries.

CTI Invest is a global company in the packaging and label industry with production sites in Canada, Spain, Colombia, Germany and now, through the acquisition of Viappiani, in Italy.  

‘We are very proud of our new acquisition Viappiani Printing, which is an innovative, customer-orientated and important player in the label market. It is our aim and commitment to grow the business of Viappiani Printing on a global basis,’ said Christian Trierenberg, CEO of CTI Invest. 

Giorgio Viappiani said: ‘I am happy to have found a group like the one of Christian Trierenberg to pass this important baton. Handing over a family business with more than 80 years of history involves a lot of emotions and thoughts also regarding its future. With the CTI Group we immediately had a good feeling for [our similar] views, and I am sure that the CTI Group will be able to offer Viappiani Printing continuity and further growth opportunities.’
