Resaplast

What Resaplast does

Resaplast srl is an Italian manufacturer of plastic food containers founded in 1974, headquartered in Castellana Grotte (Bari province) and operating a single production facility in Conversano. The company specializes in 100% recyclable virgin polypropylene (PP5) packaging — containers with lids, jars and buckets with lids, and heat-sealable containers in sizes ranging from 0.27L to 0.6L — designed for ready-to-eat, dairy, preserves, and baby food applications. Manufacturing is centred on automated injection moulding integrated with in-mould labelling (IML) for inline customization, optical inspection systems that perform 100% automated quality verification, and a co-developed robotic cell (Modula FP, with Campetella) for post-moulding automation and predictive maintenance. A 500 kWp photovoltaic installation on-site supports energy self-sufficiency.

The business operates a B2B enterprise sales model targeting Italian food manufacturers directly through field sales and technical consultation, with no intermediaries. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales of standard and customized containers, supplemented by professional services — polymer-selection consulting, packaging design, colouring, IML labeling, and post-sales support — under quote-based pricing. Certifications underpin market access: MOCA for food-contact compliance, BRCGS Packaging Materials (2025), ISO 9001, and proactive alignment with EU PPWR and SUP Directive requirements. The visible customer set spans dairy, preserves, olive products, baby food, and fruit preserves, served via domestic direct delivery.

Recent strategic activity centres on automation and ecosystem positioning: the 2026 launch of Modula FP, a 2026 industrial integration with PlasticLegno within the Sunino Group, and multi-certification pursuit signal a push toward higher-value, regulation-ready food packaging supply. The company remains privately held under family-influenced management (Sandro Caprio as legal representative, Manuela Caprio as Production Planner), with no disclosed institutional investors or external funding rounds.
