ALPLA Mladenovac
ALPLA has been a prominent player in the packaging industry since 1997, establishing itself as a leading manufacturer in Central and Eastern Europe. With a commitment to excellence, ALPLA continues to deliver innovative packaging solutions across the Balkan and Adria regions.
The journey began with the launch of the first plant in Croatia, followed by a second facility in Mladenovac, Serbia, in 2004. A significant milestone was reached in 2011 with the acquisition of Gastro PET, a leading producer of PET preforms in Slovenia, further enhancing ALPLA's capabilities. The opening of an in-house operation at Rauch Serbia in 2015 marked another critical step in strengthening its regional presence.
ALPLA specializes in a wide array of plastic packaging products, primarily focused on the beverage industry, but also catering to sectors such as food, home care, beauty care, and automotive applications like oil and lubricants. Annually, the company produces an impressive 1.3 billion preforms, supported by a workforce of around 100 dedicated employees distributed across four locations in the Balkans.
With sustainability at its core, ALPLA is actively pursuing the use of eco-friendly materials. Since 2011, the company has successfully collaborated with various local and regional brands to incorporate up to 50% recycled material in their packaging, a trend that is anticipated to gain even more importance moving forward.
ALPLA is not stopping here; future aspirations include expanding its technological portfolio to offer off-the-shelf bottles in the Balkan market. This initiative is indicative of ALPLA's commitment to evolving with industry needs and promoting sustainable practices.
