A new development for Pan American Packaging Italia. As part of the company’s process of expansion, which is permeating European markets with special products in the field of stretch wrap and packaging in general, Sardinia now transforms from an ambitious project to a concrete reality.

Furthermore, the selected industrial area of Macchiareddu, just outside of Cagliari, demonstrates a particular focus on the region, acknowledged with great satisfaction by the Regional Authorities, with the intent of contributing to the local recovery by relocating workers from the rubber/ plastic industry who have been negatively impacted in the recent past by the offshoring of multinational corporations.

The industrial block extends across an area of approximately 82 km², of which approximately 37 are occupied by manufacturing activities controlled by more than 130 companies. An excellent context within which to initiate commercial collaborations, given the cross-sector consumption of packaging products.

Antonello Morello, sole administrator, explains the group’s strategy, which identified the Sardinia Region as a valid partner and strategic location for serving central-southern Italy and introducing itself to the emerging markets of Northern Africa. He also explains how the Sardinia Region alone, which currently has no local manufacturing companies in this specific sector, has a need for packaging wrap that absorbs most of the production from Pan American Packaging Italia’s new facilities.

By moving its headquarters from the centre of Milan to Cagliari, while keeping its current manufacturing sites working at full capacity, the company has, with determination and enthusiasm, demonstrated its commitment to the southern expansion project.

In July, Pan American Packaging will move into the new warehouses, which have already been set up to accommodate the extruders and rewinders that will be powered by solar energy by the local Sardinia Green Island consortium.

In addition to standard wraps the following will also be manufactured on-site: Eagle Force Stretch ribbed technical wrap, manufactured with a patented process that produces thick longitudinal bands, making the wrap exceptionally resistant to tearing and giving it an outstanding containment capacity, characteristics that make it particularly well-suited to the packaging of irregularly shaped products;

Eagle Air Stretch macro-perforated ribbed wrap, specific to food companies, which meets the most various ventilation requirements; sterilized wraps like the revolutionary Steril Stretch which drastically reduces bacterial and viral load, thus preserving products and people’s health and adhering to increasingly stringent hygienic practices;

Fire Shield Stretch flame retardant wrap, which is very useful in large warehouses for reducing the risk of fire and keeping the merchandise, structure, and personnel safe;

Antirust Stretch wrap, also delivered in practical mini-rolls, to wrap and preserve metal profiles that are subject to oxidation;

Fresh Fruit Stretch ethylene absorber, to make fruit ripen slower; and Green Leaf Stretch, a wrap featuring time controlled decomposition for clients who wish to help reduce pollution caused by plastics accidentally littered in the environment.

Pan American Packaging Corp. has always focused on research, working hard to find innovative solutions aimed at producing avant-garde products with a conscientious and respectful use of plastic and providing high level services to its clients. The company continues to invest in research and, at its laboratories in Switzerland, certifications and other new developments are currently underway which will soon be presented on the market.

Thanks to this approach, the company was not caught off guard by the new challenges presented by this unique historic and economic moment, but rather got to work to create added value for its clients. It’s because of these aspects that the company is considered one of the most reliable and efficient players on the market in terms of service and post-sales.
