Plásticos Carmen

What Plásticos Carmen does

Plásticos Carmen S.R.L. is a privately held Bolivian plastics manufacturer founded in February 1992 in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, operating as a Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada with no disclosed parent company or institutional investors. The company produces three distinct product families — Línea Campeón (reinforced polyethylene water storage tanks in capacities from 300L to 20,000L, including the bicapa and tricapa models, cisterns, septic chambers, conical tanks, livestock feeders and waterers, and planters), Línea PC (disposable plastic bags, coils, trays, and cups), and SiloBolsas (agricultural silage bag systems, grain storage bags, wet grain bags, bicolor silo covers, and Tama/Silotite netwrap and baler film). Core manufacturing relies on roto-molding for tanks and tricapa (three-layer) coextrusion for advanced tank and film products; the SiloBolsas line is manufactured by partner Plastar San Luis S.A. and distributed by Plásticos Carmen.

The company serves three primary vertical segments: agricultural producers (water storage, livestock hydration, silage and grain preservation), residential and commercial construction (potable water storage, rainwater harvesting), and agricultural storage operations. Go-to-market is executed through a national distributor network across Bolivia for the Campeón tank line, supplemented by direct factory sales for Línea PC and SiloBolsas, dedicated toll-free phone lines (800-10-9005 for tanks, 800-10-9004 for bags), and a website-based shop and wishlist system. Marketing channels include the company website with downloadable catalogs, a Facebook page, and educational blog content.

Revenue is generated through one-time product sales across all lines with no disclosed subscription, licensing, or recurring contracts; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Operations are concentrated in Santa Cruz de la Sierra with offices on Uruguay #640 and a production facility in Parque Industrial Manzana 20. Plásticos Carmen self-describes as the national leader in Bolivia's water tank and plastics sector, with over 30 years of cumulative brand equity under the Campeón mark, but discloses no revenue, headcount, certifications, patents, or management team details in available source material.

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Grupo Rotoplas: Mexico-headquartered leader in plastic water storage tanks and water solutions across Latin America. Directly comparable to Plásticos Carmen's Línea Campeón tank business, with overlapping product categories (rotomolded and coextruded tanks), similar agricultural and residential customer segments, and presence in multiple Latin American markets.
• Plastar S.A. Argentine plastics manufacturer that owns Plastar San Luis S.A. — the actual producer of SiloBolsas that Plásticos Carmen commercializes in Bolivia. Direct comparator for the agricultural film and silo bag business, with similar coextrusion technology and silage bag product line.

Broad incumbents

• Berry Global (films division): Global plastic packaging and films producer with a silage film and agricultural film business. Comparable as a broad incumbent in agricultural stretch film and netwrap products (adjacent to Plásticos Carmen's TAMANET/SILOTITE line).
• Durman / Eslabón Group: Latin American plastic products group producing tanks, pipes, and construction plastics across Central and South America. Comparable as an incumbent in rigid plastic water storage and agricultural plastics with broader regional reach than Plásticos Carmen.
• Amanco Wavin (Mexico/LatAm): Multinational plastic pipe and storage solutions provider with strong Latin American presence in water management products. Comparable as a broader incumbent in plastic water infrastructure serving residential, agricultural, and construction segments across the region.
• Tigre S/A (Tubos e Conexões): Major Brazilian plastics manufacturer offering a broad portfolio including water storage tanks, pipes, and agricultural plastic products. Comparable as a broad incumbent in rigid plastic containers and films across Latin America, though focused on the Brazilian market.

Regional players

• Industrias Plásticas Roma (Bolivia): Bolivian plastics manufacturer focused on bags, films, and rigid plastic products. Comparable as a domestic competitor in the same single-country market, particularly for Línea PC bags and bobbins.
• Inyectados Plásticos S.A. (Bolivia): Bolivian plastic injection molding manufacturer producing household and industrial plastic goods. Comparable as a domestic plastics producer with overlapping distribution channels in the Bolivian market, though with a different core process (injection molding vs. rotomolding/coextrusion).
• Geocell (Bolivia): Bolivian manufacturer of plastic products including water tanks and construction plastics. Comparable as a domestic Bolivian competitor in rigid plastic containers with overlapping product categories to Línea Campeón.

Emerging players

• Silopack (Argentina): Manufacturer of silage bags and agricultural storage films in South America. Directly comparable as a specialist in silo bag systems — overlapping with Plásticos Carmen's SiloBolsas product line and the broader agricultural film category.
