On November 7th, in Parma, Flo celebrated its 40th anniversary. The company based in Fontanellato (Parma), leading manufacturer of disposable vending cups, has very strong links with the area of Parma where it has grown.

One year after the death of the founder, Antonio, the Simonazzi family invited over three hundred clients, suppliers and friends to this important occasion. An itinerary of history, art and gastronomy for the guests, who dined in the impressive rooms of the Castle of Soragna and, the day after, were taken on a cultural, artistic and gastronomic tour of the area.

The event was attended by D.A. Italia magazine staff, who captured the elegant, relaxed atmosphere of the evening in the photos they published together with the moving recollections of Antonio Simonazzi by those who were close to him.

The product introduces a lightweight eco-design that reduces the use of virgin raw materials while maintaining performance, a monomaterial structure without fillers to support recycling processes, and the use of 20% food-grade post-consumer recycled polystyrene. Integrated into the RiVending circuit, the cup supports a real “cup-to-cup” model and remains compatible with existing vending machines without any operational modifications.
