Minipack\u00ae-torre is synonymous with innovation, reliability, and quality in the packaging industry.
The minipack\u00ae-torre trademark is officially registered with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). Our international patents, filed in 1976 by the Chairman, Eng. Francesco Torre, and granted on the grounds of technical innovation, launched the minipack\u00ae-torre FM range onto the global market.
This milestone marked the birth of the chamber shrink wrap machine for plastic film packaging\u2014a breakthrough technology that redefined the industry standards! <\/p>

Today, even following the natural expiration of these original patents, minipack\u00ae-torre remains committed to investing in Research & Development and actively filing new technological patents to define and differentiate our product range in the global market.
The dozens of patents currently held are a synthesis of advanced technology and creative engineering. They represent our concrete response to the evolving packaging requirements of our customers worldwide. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
