Mag Data Spa, founded in Colorno (PR) in 1985, is a company specialising in the distribution of plastic films and bioplastics. It operates through four commercial di­visions serving different business sectors. The company puts its thirty years of experience in distribution at the service of its customers operating in the flexible food packaging sector. Our philosophy is to offer tailor-made solutions that take the form of a wide range of partner­ships.

The project began with a comparative study of seven different materials, evaluated in terms of recyclability, environmental impact (LCA), and long-term durability. However, this is not a standalone initiative. It is a continuously evolving knowledge platform that we intend to expand with new studies, insights, and data to support decision-making throughout the supply chain.

In a market increasingly influenced by regula­tions, environmental targets, and transparency requirements, we believe there is a growing need for tools based on measurable evidence rather than on general claims or assumptions.

Regulations and rising costs: how is your company addressing these challenges?

The evolving regulatory landscape, starting with the PPWR, requires increasingly special­ized expertise and an approach that integrates technical, environmental, and regulatory con­siderations. For this reason, Mag Data supports its customers not only in selecting the most suitable materials, but also in understanding the regulatory, quality, and sustainability implica­tions that shape the development of today’s and tomorrow’s packaging solutions.

As for cost pressures, we continue to invest in logistics, stock availability, and supply planning, with the aim of offering flexible and tailored supply models. Thanks to an increasingly robust organizational structure and a proactive supply chain management approach, we are able to support our customers even in highly unstable geopolitical environments and volatile market con­ditions, helping to ensure operational continuity and greater cost predictability.

Training and new professionals: how do you support your customers, and what is your approach to internal recruitment?

We believe that expertise and reliability are essen­tial drivers of value creation. For this reason, we continuously invest in the training of our people and in the development of both technical and regulatory competencies.

At the same time, we continue to strengthen our quality management system through certifications such as ISO, BRCGS, and ISCC. These certifications are increasingly requested by more structured or­ganizations and have become essential for operat­ing within supply chains focused on sustainability, traceability, and regulatory compliance.

Stock service

Fast delivery of quantities ranging from small batch­es to full truckloads. This allows customers to meet  sudden and unplanned material requirements. The availability of the required sizes is also ensured by the presence of dedicated cutting facilities in the produc­tion area.

Call-off formula.

The customer builds up their own stock at our factories, thus reducing their financial and warehouse commitments and always having their goods available thanks to fast and punctual deliveries.

Consignment stock.

We provide a stock of goods directly at the customer’s warehouse, which has the advantage of eliminating transport times and reducing financial commitments.

Direct containers.

The customer can receive full loads, 20ft or 40ft containers, produced according to their requirements in terms of material type and dimensions, without having to worry about customs and import procedures. The main product categories we focus on are ALUMINIUM, BOPET, BOPA and BOPP, which are divided into a wide range of standard and special ma­terials, constantly evolving in line with the technological requirements of food packaging. The great attention we pay to researching and selecting film manufacturers, which has always characterised our work, is made available to our customers and partners, who can rely on us for the development of new prod­ucts and the implementation of innovative projects.
