From Marco Terragni’s pioneering idea in the late 1960s to today’s complete extrusion and converting solutions, Agripak has been developing technology for reusable and recyclable packaging for more than half a century.
A source of pride for our family and for the Italian industry.
Seeing our children listen attentively to the explanations given to them, observing with curiosity and touching this Cartonplast® line with their own hands was a moment of great emotion.
Marco Terragni and Matteo Bressan: Visionaries Who Brought Cartonplast to Italy
In the mid-1970s, an encounter took place that would significantly influence the future of reusable and recyclable plastic packaging. Marco Terragni, founder of the COVEMA Group together with his brother Dino, met Matteo Bressan, one of the co-founders of Karton S.p.A.
We are proud to present a new video dedicated to the history of Cartonplast®, a pioneering material first created in the late 1960s by Marco Terragni, the visionary behind our family’s entrepreneurial journey.
The history of polypropylene hollow sheet extrusion dates back to the second half of the 1960s, when the first technologies destined to revolutionize the thermoplastics industry were developed at RIAP (Industrial Research Applied to Polyolefins) in Zingonia, in collaboration with Montecatini
Industry 5.0 is no longer the future—it’s the present, and Agripak is at the forefront of this transformation. Our Cartonplast extrusion lines are now more advanced than ever, thanks to the integration of artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and smart automation.
Under the leadership of Fabio Terragni, Agripak develops advanced technologies such as flat-head expansion and co-extrusion to reduce the use of virgin raw materials and energy consumption, reducing the environmental impact and enhancing the performance of recycled plastic products.
