OUR HISTORY

our history

Since 1977 we have been producing industrial adhesives in Italy.

Our years of experience have enabled us to offer a wide range of products to meet the needs of diverse industrial sectors such as woodworking, paneling, textiles, and tissue.

Our commitment to optimizing production processes, with particular attention to the environment, has allowed us to become a reference point in the industrial adhesives market in Italy and abroad.

In 2012, we expanded our presence by opening Unicol Polska in Warsaw.

LIFE ADHESIVE

SUSTAINABLE BONDING

With our new Life Adhesive line, we are committed to sustainable bonding without compromising performance. By replacing some fossil-based materials with bio-based or recycled sources, we offer solutions that combine exceptional performance with environmental responsibility.

HARNESSING SOLAR ENERGY

OUR PHOTOVOLTAIC PLANT

Our 180 kW photovoltaic plant represents our latest step towards a sustainable future. Covering a quarter of our energy needs, it will reduce CO2 emissions by 106t/year, equivalent to planting 5,300 trees.

PRS GREEN LABEL

REDUCING PACKAGING WASTE

We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint, packaging waste, and promoting pallet reuse. In 2023, we received the PRS GREEN LABEL recognition, confirming our ecological commitment.

SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING

GIVING NEW LIFE TO PLASTIC

We believe in sustainable packaging and have just introduced an adhesive tape made with 85% recycled granules derived from plastic bottles, thus helping to reduce our environmental impact.

NOT JUST ADHESIVES

BUT ALSO SOCIAL BONDS

We take care of our employees through corporate welfare initiatives. In addition to the annual production bonus that recognizes the hard work of our employees, we support their health by sponsoring events such as the “Free Mammography and Ultrasound” promoted by WelfareCare and open to all employees. Additionally, we offer a relaxation room to create a comfortable and welcoming space in the company.
