What ITC Packaging does
ITC Packaging, S.L.U. is a privately held Spanish plastic packaging manufacturer headquartered in Ibi (Alicante) and operating three production plants in Spain (Ibi, Toledo/Advanced PET, and Sopelana/Vizcaya). The company produces thin-wall plastic containers using polypropylene (PP) injection moulding, PET injection and blow moulding, and, since 2024, thermoforming, serving food (dairy, infant nutrition, ice cream, ready meals, snacks, spices), cosmetics and personal care, household cleaning, beverages, and pet food customers. Key technologies include In-Mould Labeling (IML) for 360-degree tamper-evident decoration, the proprietary TWI-PET thin-wall injection process that reduces wall thickness by 15% and cycle time by 10%, the Reduce Pack skin packaging that replaces container walls with labels, and oxygen-barrier labelling for shelf-life extension. The company also develops compostable (Bio2Bio), bio-based, and recycled-content (rPP, rPET) materials, including ISCC Plus certified chemically recycled food-grade polypropylene.
ITC generates revenue primarily through one-time sales of both standard catalogue containers and bespoke MyPack customised packaging, with quote-based pricing on engineered projects. Go-to-market is direct B2B sales targeting enterprise FMCG and personal-care manufacturers, with no disclosed intermediary channels, supported by a multilingual website, trade-show participation, EU research-project collaboration (SISTERS, MERLIN, VERSO), and corporate publications such as Packaging Culture magazine. The company has executed over 2,000 packaging projects and supplies customers in more than 30 countries across five continents, with named enterprise relationships including Nestlé (since 1992), Arla, Danone, Hero, Hochdorf, Carmencita, and Body Natur.
Ownership remains with the founding Valls family and long-tenured management, with no disclosed external equity investors; the company has grown through organic project wins and the acquisition of Advanced PET (2001) and the Sopelana plant (2014). Reported annual turnover is €70M (with the Advanced PET division at €6.5M), headcount is ~270 across five working centres, and the company holds BRCGS AA+, ISO 14001, and ISCC Plus certifications that underpin qualification for major multinational customers.
