Perego Carta

What Perego Carta does

Perego Carta S.p.A. is an Italian privately-held B2B distributor of graphic, packaging, and specialty paper, envelopes, office supplies, and workplace products, headquartered in Sesto Fiorentino (Florence), Italy. The company operates an e-commerce platform at peregocarta.it through which professional and corporate clients — printers, graphic designers, packaging companies, creative studios, and general office buyers — purchase products by the piece, box, ream, thousand, roll, quintale, kilogram, or package, with options for customized cutting and special processing. The catalogue spans four macro-categories: Carta & Stampa (professional printing paper, multifunction paper, rolls, decalcomania/transfer, packaging), Buste (commercial, sack, shipping, premium/invitations, shoppers), Ufficio (archiving, stationery, writing/correction, binding, notebooks, visual communication, office organization), and Ambiente di lavoro (PPE, cleaning/hygiene, signage, optical materials, first aid, anti-theft, food-use).

Underlying the distribution platform, Perego Carta markets proprietary specialty paper brands including MaKula® (flocked paper), ERBIVORA (40% dried-grass ecological paper), PERGRAPHICA® (premium natural paper), DINASOUR (high-thickness cardstock), RUSTIKA (recycled cardboard), and ALGRO VOLUME (100% virgin-fiber cardstock), plus embossed papers (Le Goffrature) and Pergraphica-branded envelopes. The company holds FSC Chain of Custody, ISO 9001:2015, and RAFCOM certifications, which are core to its positioning on sustainability and quality in B2B procurement. Payment processing is delivered through third-party integrations with Stripe, Nexi, and PayPal, and the company does not store full card data internally.

Commercially, Perego Carta runs a sales-led, B2B-only e-commerce motion: buyers must register a business account to transact, prices are listed in Euro excluding VAT, and the company reserves the right to update price lists without notice. Unit pricing spans from low-cost consumables (around €0.07–€1) to higher-ticket specialty items and rolls (up to ~€130 per roll), and revenue is generated through one-time online purchases rather than subscription contracts. The company operates exclusively in the Italian domestic market, with no disclosed international footprint, management team, M&A activity, or external funding history.
