About Albipack

25 years of packaging engineering, built in Águeda.

What started as two founders’ know-how and the ambition to raise the bar for Portuguese packaging is today a company spanning Portugal, Spain and the PALOP markets — still family-owned, still hands-on with every project, and still building on the same partnerships that let us be both manufacturer and official distributor for our clients.

01

Origin

Albipack was founded in 2000 in Águeda, Portugal, by two founders who combined hands-on packaging know-how with a clear ambition: to raise the standard of the Portuguese packaging industry. What began as a small technical operation grew, year after year, into a company built on proximity — to the client, to the problem, to the solution.

02

Growth

Over the next two decades, that proximity turned into a growing footprint: first across Portugal, then into Spain and the Portuguese-speaking African markets (PALOP), where a shared language made technical support faster and closer. Along the way, Albipack built a network of partnerships with leading European manufacturers — PRISMA INDUSTRIALE, VELTEKO, ARCA and DM Pack — becoming both a manufacturer of its own equipment and an official distributor of theirs. That dual model is still what sets Albipack apart: one partner engineering and sourcing the right solution, instead of just selling what's in a catalog.

Today

Today, 25 years on, Albipack is ISO 9001 certified, a PME Líder and a COTEC-recognized innovator — credentials that back up what clients already know from experience: personalized projects, the right technology for the job, and a team that stays close through installation, maintenance and beyond. Ambition, loyalty, common sense, innovation, productivity, friendship, trust and know-how — the values spelled out in our own name — are still how we measure every project.

Our History

From two founders’ know-how in Águeda to 25 years of packaging engineering across Iberia and the PALOP markets — the milestones that got us here.

2000

Founded in Águeda

It started with two founders, a workshop in
Águeda, and a conviction that Portuguese packaging deserved better. No investors, no shortcuts — just know-how and the ambition to build something that lasted.

2003

Own manufacturing

A decade in, Albipack stopped just installing other people's machines and started building its own. That shift — from reseller to manufacturer — is still the backbone of how we work today: engineering the solution, not just sourcing it.

2012

Iberian expansion

Growth crossed the border into Spain, and shared language carried us further still, into the Portuguese-speaking African markets.
Proximity — not size — is what made it work: technical support that speaks the client's language, literally.

2022

PME Líder & COTEC

Two national recognitions in the same stretch — PME Líder for financial solidity, COTEC Innovator for how we build — turned three decades of hands-on work into credentials clients could point to before ever meeting us.

2026

B2B digital portal

The next chapter: putting three decades of engineering, distribution and technical support behind a single digital front door — so ordering, tracking and reordering feel as reliable as everything that came before it.

Certifications 

ISO 9001, PME Líder, COTEC Innovador and PME Excelência: the credentials behind what our clients already know from experience.

What drives us

Technical precision

Every machine is tested for 72 hours before leaving the factory. Tolerances of ±0.5g on dosing equipment. We deliver no less than that.

Proximity to clients

We talk to operators, not just directors. The people who use the machine every day have more to teach us than any report.

Responsible innovation

We integrate technology when it solves real problems. COTEC Innovator 2024: not for the award, but for the philosophy of continuous improvement.
