With only two years in business, Ercopac has established itself as one of the most dynamic and innovative companies in the packaging industry. From its headquarters in Scandiano, the company has experienced tremendous growth, tripling turnover and expanding its team from 6 to 40 employees. Thanks to an innovation-driven approach and proximity to customers, Ercopac has become a benchmark for end-of-line, with tailor-made solutions that meet the needs of increasingly demanding markets.
A success story based on innovation and collaboration
The idea for Ercopac came from the intuition of Antonio Grassi, founder of Bema in Viano, who collaborated with Manuel Grassi and Cristian Lusoli to build a company capable of standing out in the market. “The combination of the complementary skills of the partners has allowed us to develop innovative machines that are superior to those already available,” explains Manuel Grassi, president and founder of Ercopac.
Cristian Lusoli stresses the importance of the relationship with customers: “Many return to order because they find in our products and services the quality and reliability they are looking for.”
Ambitious goals for the future
Looking to the future, Ercopac has outlined an ambitious growth plan: by 2027 the company aims to reach a turnover of 25 million euros and double the number of employees from the current 40 to 80. Among the most significant projects are:
- Opening a branch in Mexico in 2025 to strengthen presence in Latin America.
- Expansion with a new warehouse in Parma to increase production capacity.
- Participation in Carpineti’s Fluid, a further demonstration of the company’s dynamism.
Innovation and sustainability: an integrated vision
Sustainability is one of the pillars of Ercopac’s strategy. The packaging systems developed by the company save up to 30 percent of plastic compared to competitors, demonstrating how technological innovation can go hand in hand with respect for the environment. This approach makes it possible not only to reduce environmental impact, but also to improve operational efficiency, providing significant benefits for customers.
A reliable partner for customized solutions
Ercopac targets strategic industries such as tissue, beverage and food, offering customized end-of-line solutions.
The main products include:
- Palletizing: Systems that provide stability and safety for transporting loads.
- Wrapping: Advanced technologies for efficient and sustainable packaging.
- Patented top-cover systems: Innovations that optimize the process of pallet top protection.
- Labeling: Precise and versatile solutions for optimal traceability.
In 2025, “ErcoLab,” a space dedicated to customer product testing, will open, representing another step forward in the ability to respond to market needs.
Impressive growth and a positive outlook
In the two-year period 2023-2024, Ercopac recorded 325 percent revenue growth, consolidating its position in the industry. “Being positive is essential to continue innovating and anticipating customer needs,” says Manuel Grassi.
Through a winning combination of innovation, sustainability and strategic vision, Ercopac is poised to play an increasingly prominent role in the global packaging landscape.
