Campo Limpo

What Campo Limpo does

Campo Limpo is a Brazilian plastics recycling and manufacturing company founded in 2008 and headquartered in Taubaté, São Paulo. The company specializes in producing high-performance packaging from post-consumer agricultural pesticide plastic, operating three wholly-owned legal entities (Campo Limpo Reciclagem e Transformação de Plásticos S.A., Campo Limpo Tampas e Resinas Plásticas LTDA, and Campo Limpo Resinas e Reciclagem Plástica LTDA) across manufacturing facilities in Taubaté and Ribeirão Preto. Its core products are ECOPLÁSTICA®, a UN-certified three-layer co-extruded HDPE container made from recycled agricultural pesticide packaging (available in 5, 10, and 20L volumes), and ECOCAP®, a high-performance closure system made from 100% post-consumer recycled resin (RPC), sold separately or as the integrated 'Dupla Imbatível' bundle. Production incorporates automated co-extrusion lines, 3D dimensional quality control, and graphical modeling for custom design.

Campo Limpo is an integral converter within the Sistema Campo Limpo, the Brazilian reverse logistics framework managed by inpEV that captures 94% of primary agricultural pesticide packaging for proper disposal and recycles over 90%. The company operates a B2B enterprise sales model targeting agricultural chemical manufacturers (pesticides, lubricating oils, foliar fertilizers), with field sales and engineering teams co-developing customized packaging solutions adapted to each customer's filling-line specifications. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; revenue is generated through one-time sales of physical packaging products and integrated cap/container systems, not via licensing or subscription models.

Since inception the company has recycled over 62,000 tonnes of empty agricultural pesticide packaging and avoids approximately 14,703 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually through ECOPLÁSTICA® production versus virgin resin equivalents (2018 baseline, Fundação Espaço ECO). It holds ISO 9001, UN dangerous-goods transport, and EcoVadis Silver Medal certifications, and has been recognized on Brazil's 150 Best Companies to Work For list (Você S/A magazine) since 2013.

Core offering

Campo Limpo manufactures recycled plastic packaging for the Brazilian agricultural sector, producing ECOPLÁSTICA® co-extruded HDPE containers (5, 10, and 20 L) and ECOCAP® closure systems from post-consumer recycled resin sourced from agricultural pesticide packaging. Products are customized per client production line and carry UN certification for dangerous goods transport, sold directly to agricultural chemical manufacturers, lubricating oil producers, and foliar fertilizer companies as part of the integrated Dupla Imbatível packaging solution.

Product overview

Campo Limpo operates as a plastic recycling and transformation company with two main products forming an integrated packaging ecosystem: ECOPLÁSTICA® (coextruded plastic containers made from recycled agricultural pesticide packaging, available in 5/10/20L) and ECOCAP® (high-performance sealing caps made from 100% recycled RPC). These products are designed to be used together as the 'Dupla Imbatível' (Unbeatable Duo) system, providing sustainable packaging solutions for the Brazilian agricultural sector. The company also offers the Eco Triex® certification seal for eco-efficient products.

Others

• inpEV (Instituto Nacional de Processamento de Embalagens Vazias): Non-profit intelligence hub of the Sistema Campo Limpo reverse logistics system that supplies Campo Limpo's post-consumer feedstock. Not a direct competitor, but the central upstream partner in the closed-loop value chain, making it the most operationally relevant entity for comparability.
• Veolia Environnement (Recycling & Recovery division): Operates plastic recycling and recovery infrastructure globally, intersecting with Campo Limpo's recycled resin supply chain. Comparable as an ecosystem participant rather than direct competitor; could be either a partner (resin supplier) or future entrant in PCR packaging production.

Broad incumbents

• Greif, Inc. Global industrial packaging manufacturer producing plastic drums, IBCs, and jerrycans widely used for agrochemical and specialty chemical applications. Comparable in serving the same B2B agrochemical packaging market, but operates at much greater scale and lacks Campo Limpo's post-consumer recycled content positioning.
• Mauser Packaging Solutions: Industrial rigid plastic container manufacturer (drums, IBCs, jerricans) serving chemical, agrochemical, and lubricant customers globally. Directly comparable product category to ECOPLÁSTICA® but without the recycled-content or reverse-logistics integration.
• ALPLA Group: Austrian-headquartered global plastic packaging manufacturer with strong sustainability/PCR-content portfolio and Latin American presence. Comparable in sustainable rigid plastic packaging positioning, though with a much broader customer base spanning FMCG, food, and chemicals beyond agrochemicals.
• Berry Global Group (now Berry Global / Glatfelter Magnera merged entity): One of the world's largest plastic packaging manufacturers, with rigid containers and PCR-content products. Serves many of the same agrochemical end-markets as Campo Limpo, though at very different scale and with a global product mix.
• Amcor plc: Global packaging giant with rigid and flexible plastic packaging for chemical and personal care applications, plus aggressive sustainability targets for recycled content. Highly comparable in the sustainability positioning aspect, though Agrochemical-specific UN dangerous goods certification is a more niche overlap.

Direct peers

• AptarGroup, Inc. Global leader in dispensing systems, seals, and closures across pharma, food, and chemical packaging. Closely comparable to ECOCAP® as a high-performance closure specialist, with similar B2B sales motion to packaging converters and brand owners.

Regional players

• Termotécnica Ltda. Major Brazilian rigid plastic packaging and EPS producer serving food, beverages, and industrial/agrochemical customers with regional manufacturing footprint. Comparable in serving Brazilian agrochemical packaging needs but without the post-consumer recycled-content specialty.

Emerging players

• Scholle IPN: Specialty packaging supplier with growing focus on sustainable bag-in-box and pouch formats for agrochemical and food customers. Overlaps with Campo Limpo in agrochemical packaging end-markets and sustainability narrative but focused on flexible rather than rigid formats.
