1981

Celplast was founded as one of the first companies to offer egg packaging solutions. Lightweight and durable plastic products designed to guarantee maximum protection and hygiene during transport.

1985

Our production growth led us to relocate to a larger and more structured headquarter in Vigonza, near Padua. This facility — continuously upgraded over the years — remains the heart of our operations.

1990 – 2000

With the expansion of our egg tray range, entry into international markets and collaboration with large-scale retail, the company evolved from a small business into a structured industrial operation, becoming a market reference point in the early 2000s.

2008

We obtained UNI EN ISO 22000:2005 certification, an official recognition of our dedication to food security and quality management.

2009 – 2019

We invested in Research and Development to further enhance product performance. We improved aesthetics, functionality and transparency, adapting packaging to market demands while automating the production lines.

2020

We patented the Giotto pizza plate designed for delivery. The Giotto pizza plate preserves the quality and crispness of the product and adapts to different formats: classic, Neapolitan, Roman pizza and focaccia.

2021

We opened a new logistics and warehouse unit to optimize operations and increase storage capacity — a strategic investment to support company growth and improve customer service efficiency.

2022

We expanded our offering with a new line of food trays: versatile, durable and customizable solutions, ideal for food companies supplying large-scale retail as well as the restaurant and takeaway sector.
