Testimonials

“In 2017, I completed my internship in Industrial Engineering and Management at Vipex, and at the end of the three months, I was offered a position at the company.

I began working in the production department, specifically in the Process Engineering area. During this period, the entire team showed remarkable willingness to collaborate with me and to share their knowledge.

In 2019, the production area was reorganized into three cells, and I was assigned responsibility for one of them.

In 2021/22, I began training on injection-stretch blow moulding machines, and in 2023, I moved to the cell that operates this equipment, where I currently hold responsibility.

I consider my journey at the company to have been marked by consistent and significant growth, made possible by the openness and support demonstrated across the organization, as well as by the opportunities for development and training provided. These experiences have contributed greatly to my professional and personal growth.”

“When I joined VIPEX, I brought with me the desire to learn and build a solid career. From the very beginning, I had the opportunity to work in my field of study, without imagining how much this journey would transform me — not only as a professional but also as a person.

Here, I found a welcoming environment where effort is recognized, and every voice is heard. I had leaders who believed in my potential, colleagues who became friends, and challenges that pushed me to give my best and grow. Each project, each goal achieved, prepared me for the next steps.

The company has always provided me with opportunities to grow, but it has also taught me the true value of teamwork, trust, and perseverance. Today, as Sales Director, I have the privilege of contributing to VIPEX’s success.

I feel proud when I look back and see how much I have evolved — and even more proud to work in a place that believes in people and offers real opportunities for growth. This evolution reflects an environment that inspires, supports, and recognizes the dedication of every team member.”

“Working at Vipex has been a truly rewarding experience. The company values professional growth and teamwork, creating a positive and motivating environment.

My journey is a clear example of that — I started as an injection and assembly operator, later joined the procurement team, was invited to lead the raw materials warehouse, and today I’m responsible for the shipping department.

I feel that my contribution is recognized and that I’m part of a purposeful project. Vipex invests in innovation and development, and every day is an opportunity to learn and grow.”
