Sacchital Group: 
R-evolution in packaging, the strength to reinvent every day

Since 1945, flexibility has been part of our DNA. We are a group of companies that never settles for less: firmly rooted, yet constantly adapting and reinventing to meet present and future challenges.

From the very beginning, we have been committed to designing flexible packaging solutions, creating food packaging, industrial containers, and tailor-made projects for every need. Every step we take is an investment in future. Our extensive experience in processing paper is the foundation upon which we build tomorrow’s solutions—solutions that not only protect products but also preserve them in a responsible way.

 

Our commitment to the environment is strong. Every innovation is developed with a clear vision: to respect nature and optimize resources. This is why the search for renewable, sustainable, and recyclable materials is the beating heart of our strategies. From biopolymers to extrusion technologies, our goal is to reduce environmental impact without ever compromising on quality.

For us, every project is an opportunity to grow. Each new packaging solution is a challenge, an opportunity to shape a more sustainable world, driven by our passion and daily commitment.

Our values: a guide toward a sustainable future

Our choices are inspired by four fundamental principles that guide us toward new goals and help us improve day by day:

Innovation

The drive that pushes us to always look beyond. Through our continuous research and desire to evolve, we create solutions that anticipate trends and change the industry.
