Canadian Manufacturers Outlook 2019

Posted by info@italtradecanada.com | 30 Ene 2019

The Canadian Manufacturers’ Outlook is a survey conducted, on a yearly basis, by PLANT Magazine in partnership with sponsors Grant Thornton LLP, SYSPRO Canada and Machines Italia with the Italian Trade Commission. This year's survey is based on 501 replies from senior manufacturing executives (margin of error of ± 3.6%, 19 times out of 20). PLANT’s Manufacturers’ Outlook 2019 survey conducted from Aug. 1 to Sept. 11 shows uncertain business conditions are affecting the attitudes of senior company executives. Thirty per cent are optimistic, which is down from last year’s sample (44%), and most (51%) qualify their optimism with caution. Looking at the next three years, optimism declines markedly to 23% of respondents compared to last year (38%) as caution is registered by 54%. The same is true of Canada’s economic growth. Only 11% are optimistic compared to 22% last year. The global view inspires even less confidence (9% optimistic compared to 19% last year).
Sixty-five percent of companies are very concerned about US protectionism, a considerable increase from last year’s 54%. Concern about the Trump administration’s impact on nation-to-nation relationships is also higher at 61%, compared to 45% in 2018. The NAFTA negotiations were high on the list (56%), although a deal was reached after the survey was closed.

USA: GUIDA FISCALE

Posted by ITAMachines | 24 Mar 2017

Questa Guida fa parte di una mini collana di due volumi che include la Guida legale “USA Guida Pratica agli investimenti - Frequently Asked Questions” consultabile sul sito www.machinesitalia.org. Anche questo secondo prontuario nasce dalla collaborazione con ASSOCOMAPLAST (Associazione Nazionale dei Costruttori di Macchine e Stampi per Materie Plastiche e Gomma) con l’obiettivo di presentare in maniera sintetica, alle aziende interessate, il sistema scale e contabile USA.

La disciplina scale americana risulta, nel suo complesso, piuttosto complicata ed è in continua evoluzione. E’ di matrice federalista e si basa sul principio della “progressività” (ovvero le imposte crescono all’aumentare del reddito), con un’imposizione su tre diversi livelli: locale, statale e federale. In linea generale è assoggettata alla giurisdizione scale degli USA ciascuna persona sica o giuridica che produca, venda beni o servizi o che sia membro di una partnership o Limited Liability Company.

La mini collana arricchisce le numerose informazioni gia disponibili sul sito web di ICE Agenzia (www.ice.gov.it) e si inserisce nell’elenco di pubblicazioni curate dalla Rete ICE negli USA. Tra queste segnaliamo la “Guida Pratica alla Proprietà Intellettuale negli USA” curata dal Desk di Assistenza alla Tutela della Proprietà Intellettuale e agli Ostacoli al Commercio presso ICE New York.

USA: GUIDA PRATICA AGLI INVESTIMENTI FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Posted by ITAMachines | 7 Feb 2017

Questa Guida nasce dalla collaborazione con ASSOCOMAPLAST, Associazione nazionale dei costruttori di macchine e stampi per materie plastiche e gomma, con l’obiettivo di fornire uno strumento di primo orientamento semplice e agile alle aziende interessate ad espandere una propria presenza commerciale o produttiva negli Stati Uniti. Le macchine per la lavorazione delle materie plastiche e della gomma hanno registrato nel 2015 uno dei più alti tassi di crescita dell’intero comparto meccanica (2,9 miliardi di euro di export nel 2015 di cui 260 milioni diretti proprio verso gli Stati Uniti, con un incremento del 50% rispetto al 2014).

La continua crescita dell’interscambio Italia-USA, pari a 54.3 miliardi di Euro nel 2015, con la meccanica italiana a rappresentare la prima voce delle nostre esportazioni con una quota del 23%, è accompagnata da una parallela costante crescita di aziende italiane che decidono di radicarsi stabilmente negli Stati Uniti. Una presenza stabile è infatti una condizione essenziale, anche se non sufficiente, per poter crescere e fare affari negli USA. Ciò è particolarmente vero per le aziende italiane della meccanica e in generale dei settori in cui l’assistenza tecnica, i servizi di ricambistica e i servizi post- vendita rappresentano fattori negoziali di fondamentale importanza.

ICE-Agenzia per la promozione all’estero e l’internazionalizzazione delle imprese italiane ha mappato, nei settori della meccanica e dei beni industriali, la presenza stabile di oltre 500 aziende con investimenti che spaziano dalla piccola struttura di commercializzazione e assistenza, assemblaggio fino alla produzione vera e propria sul suolo statunitense. Aziende per lo più collocate nelle principali zone manifatturiere americane: “MidWest”, con oltre 170 aziende, e “South-East” con 150 presenze. Nel solo settore delle macchine per materie plastiche e gomma sono più di 30 le aziende stabilmente presenti.

La Guida fa parte di una mini collana che includera' un secondo prontuario che presenta il sistema fiscale e contabile USA.

Perceptions and Opportunity: Packaging and Packaging Machinery in the USA

Posted by admin | 1 Feb 2017

A presentation of a customized study by Euromonitor on the Packaging Machinery in the US for the Food & Beverage Industry on the occasion of Pack Expo International held here in Chicago in November 2016.

The study is based on in-depth industry Interviews with over 25 U.S. Food/Beverage processors and Packaging Machinery Survey results from over 150 U.S. Food/Beverage processors. The study was sponsored by the Italian Trade Agency Chicago USA and Italy's packaging machinery manufacturers' association, UCIMA.

The two major objectives to this report were to identify the perception of certain types of packaging machines based on country of origin, company size, while also identifying the primary purchasing decisions for US food and beverage manufacturers. And secondly, to dive into the opportunity available in the US market for Italian packaging machinery manufacturers by looking at imports into the US, key consumer pack type trends, and future purchasing decisions for US food and beverage manufacturers.

Italian Trade Agency & Society of Manufacturing 2016 Industry 4.0 Survey

Posted by ITAMachines | 13 Dic 2016

This survey of Industry 4.0 was conducted by the Italian Trade Agency Chicago USA Office and the Society of Manufacturing Engineers in November 2016 with over 325 companies based in the US taking part (2/3 of which currently use Italian machinery and technology in their production lines). The report provides insight and analysis to determine the latest trends in Smart Manufacturing to determine how manufacturers are reacting to Industry 4.0. Questions included plans to adopt the connected factory on the shop floor in regards to technology acquisitions, upgrades and migrations to benchmark current awareness/understanding and the perceive ‘role’ of digital solutions, identify current adoptions and areas of focus. Over the last decade, the evolution of the Internet of Things, Big Data and the desire for ever-increasing productivity has driven the smart manufacturing movement. Today, manufacturers can see and react to the performance of their machines and integrated systems with analytics in real time. They can enable machines to talk to one other, control operations remotely, predict challenges and even share live data with the supply chain. Advancements in cloud computing, as well as mobile and app technology, increasingly puts power into the users’ hands.
