Campanini

What Campanini does

Campanini Ugo S.r.l. is an Italian, family-owned industrial packaging manufacturer headquartered in Pieve di Cento (Bologna), Italy, producing polypropylene (PP) and polyester (PET) strapping bands for industrial load-securing applications. Founded at the turn of the 20th century and now in its fifth family generation, the company operates as part of the Cyklop packaging group following its 2022 integration, while retaining its heritage brands SLUM and SLUMBAND as quality marks established in the 1950s.

Its core technology centers on extrusion-based strapping production: PP strapping is made from 100% virgin raw material and can be printed in up to three colors, while PET strapping is produced from 100% recycled bottle-derived material and is claimed to deliver approximately 15% higher tenacity than market equivalents due to material purity and proprietary process control. Specialized variants include anti-cutting edge (Anti-spigolo) PP for ceramics/bricks, anti-dust (Antipolvere) PP for publishing, and high-tenacity (Alta Tenacità) lines. The portfolio extends to twines, strapping accessories (dispensers, manual and pneumatic tools, coil carts), and complete packaging solutions (strapping machines, wrappers, coders, taping machines, binding machines) sourced through the Cyklop group.

Campanini runs a B2B direct-sales model with a domestic sales office and a dedicated export department. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with multi-year industrial supply contracts and occasional promotional offers. The company serves six primary verticals: corrugated cardboard/box manufacturing, ceramics and bricks, publishing and paper, logistics, fruit and vegetable packaging (food-contact approved), and general industrial applications. Distribution leverages the Cyklop group's global network, supplemented by trade-fair presence (MacFrut) and LinkedIn. In 2026 the company obtained ISO 9001:2015 certification for its quality management system.
