What Tompla does
Tompla (legal name: TOMPLA INDUSTRIA INTERNACIONAL DEL SOBRE, S.L.) is a Spanish-headquartered industrial manufacturer of self-adhesive labels and envelopes, operating as the flagship brand of the PRINTEOS Group since 1961. Its core operations are concentrated at a 345,000+ m2 production facility in Alcalá de Henares (Madrid) — described in source materials as the world's largest industrial plant by envelope production volume — complemented by a 35,000+ m2 label manufacturing area. The company runs a vertically integrated production chain from pre-press to printing to manufacturing, supported by overprint plants capable of fulfilling orders of 1,000 to 1 million envelopes within 24 hours and a permanent stock of more than 100 million items across 300+ envelope models.
The product portfolio spans six distinct lines: core envelopes and self-adhesive labels; TomplaPharma for pharmaceutical and medical-device labeling (RFID, Braille, multi-layer, security seals); Eco Air for paper-based sustainable packaging positioned against EU Directive EU-2019/904; TomplaPrint for corporate printing services; TomplaPAC for cardboard packaging; and a promotional gifts catalog of 6,000+ items. Revenues are generated through one-time transactional sales with custom quotation-based pricing, minimum order quantities starting at 250 units, and a 24-hour express fulfillment tier for stocked references. Distribution is wholly direct, with no third-party resellers identified.
The go-to-market is sales-led, with 10+ commercial delegations across Spain, France, Portugal, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Poland, backed by a Spanish regional representative network. Tompla reports 50,000+ annual orders, 5,000+ satisfied customers per year, and 3 million+ active customers abroad, with some relationships exceeding 30 years. Customer segments are intentionally horizontal — pharma, food, large-scale retail, logistics, wines/beverages, direct marketing, and e-commerce — reducing dependency on any single vertical. No revenue, funding, or ownership percentages are disclosed.
