Great customer partnerships don’t happen by chance—they’re built by investing in the right people.
As Steelforce America continues to grow, we’re strengthening our leadership team to better serve our customers and accelerate our long-term vision for North America.
The promotion and relocation of Paolo Pinto to Vice President of Sales & Operations marks an important step in that journey. With nearly 2 decades of international experience across the metal packaging industry, Paolo brings a unique combination of commercial expertise, operational leadership, and global perspective that will further strengthen our North American business while connecting customers to the full capabilities of the Steelforce Group.
“Paolo’s leadership comes at an important time for our business,” said Brion Talley, CEO of Steelforce America. “His ability to connect commercial strategy with operational execution, combined with his deep understanding of our customers and our industry, makes him an exceptional addition to our leadership team. Most importantly, his experience strengthens our ability to deliver the responsiveness, expertise, and value our customers expect from Steelforce America.”
Paolo’s leadership will help us align our commercial and operational teams, accelerate decision-making, and bring the strength of our global network even closer to our North American customers. From broader sourcing opportunities and deeper market intelligence to faster, more responsive service, his experience will help us continue delivering solutions that create long-term value.
For our team, Paolo’s appointment is about more than organizational growth. It reflects our continued investment in building a connected, customer-focused business supported by experienced leadership, operational excellence, and global collaboration.
“Paolo has been an integral part of Steeforce’s success for many years, and his move to North America reflects our continued investment in the region,” said Davide Padovani, CEO of Steelforce Packaging. “His global perspective and collaborative leadership style will further connect our North American customers to the full capabilities of the Steelforce Group, helping us deliver smarter solutions, stronger partnerships, and long-term value across the market.”
As our customers’ businesses continue to evolve, so will we. By investing in experienced leaders and strengthening the connection between our global capabilities and local execution, we’re building an organization that’s better equipped to solve challenges, seize opportunities, and support our customers’ success for years to come.
