Epta is ready to exhibit at Enolitech, section of the famous Vinitaly, the International Wine and Spirit Trade Fair, with its Iarp branded plug-ins (Pav. 10 Stand D4). Scheduled to take place in Verona from 2 to 5 April, it is the first fair in the world dedicated to the enological sector, an opportunity for sommeliers, entrepreneurs, distributors, and wine lovers to expand their enological knowledge and explore the best technologies on the market.

Epta transforms its furnishings into vending machines thanks to VIPay digital technology, innovation which symbolises a digitalisation increasingly present in everyday life. It is also a symbol of constantly evolving automatic distribution (AD) to satisfy the most recent consumer trends.   The history of AD begins in the 1950s, when the only kind of automatic distributor on the market was for coffee.

Epta, with the Iarp plug-ins, renews its participation in Beer&Food Attraction (Hall SUD, stand 020), the fair dedicated to the entire Eating Out community in Rimini from 19 to 22 February 2023.

Each year, Associazione per il Disegno Industriale (ADI) identifies the best Italian design solutions with the ADI DESIGN INDEX. This year, Epta signs two of the projects selected: HEALTHY, by Massimiliano Mandarini, and Axis, the counter fridge proposed by Iarp.

Warhol, Kandinsky, Picasso, Dalì, Eliasson… Are we in a museum? Not at all. With Epta and the wine coolers by its brand Iarp, art comes to wine stores, restaurants, hotels and all specialty stores. Yes: already during the last century, great international artists began to dabble with canvases much more subtle than those normally in use: wine labels. After all, the passion for what is undoubtedly one of the oldest pleasures in the world unites not only countries and centuries, but many different ethnicities, people and talents.

Click & collect, set up in 2011, is an efficient purchasing method which saves time, by allowing the customer to choose and collect the products more quickly. It is a new way of shopping which allows you to purchase by clicking and collecting from a practical refrigerated locker. Following a first adjustment phase, it has experienced a considerable development in the English-speaking world since 2018.

Fresh, inviting, creamy, fruity, refreshing. In one word, ice cream. A temptation that has always interested the palate of children of any generation. Ice cream is a sector of the market that knows no limits of age or food regime. There is just one discriminating factor: the choice of flavours. What makes the difference is the craftsmanship rather than the semi or total industrialisation of the product. The universe of childhood playfully associates ice cream with Toyland.

Epta Asia Pacific was a “guest” at the international THAIFEX-ANUGA ASIA fair of Bangkok Thailand, the biggest appointment of the continent dedicated to Food & Beverage, Ho.Re.Ca and food tech. With more than 1,200 exhibitors and 40,000 visitors expected, the event held from 24 to 28 May was a showcase of excellence to launch the novelties of the Bonnet Névé and Iarp (Hall 1 – Stand RR13) brands on the APAC market.

The vending world is continuously evolving, and the key words are innovation, sustainability, increase in offer and user experience. Epta responds to these trends with the renewal of its Coldistrict range, with products that are all available in Class C or higher.   One family for beverages, fresh articles, snacks and ice cream which comes as the perfect expression of the concept Your #futurevolution: the Epta System.
