Euroscatola
Euroscatola was founded in Cantù in 1973. The founder, Silvio Cappelletti, had the insight to offer a product that was always useful to companies, but one that few people produced, and often poorly. By chance, attending a phone call between a business friend and his packaging supplier, he realized that there were significant opportunities behind this industry.
The rest is history, which we proudly share with you through key dates.
