Exceptional quality comes as standard
If our products are decidedly out of the ordinary, there’s a good reason – or reasons, to be precise. From the creative design to the artwork, from the authoring to the mastering, and from the replication of the DVD to its packaging and packing, we provide a complete service that is all managed in-house to ensure quality is never compromised.

Pozzoli’s Research & Development: bringing ideas to life
Pozzoli does more than merely transform ideas into reality – the company actually develops and enriches those ideas in an ongoing dialogue with its clients. Within the R&D Department, a team of highly qualified experts applies its creativity to cutting-edge materials and special packaging processes. Using an advanced CAD-CAM system to design and build mock-ups, which are then put through their paces by dedicated testing machinery, the R&D team has what it takes to design and develop – in next-to-no-time – a wide range of original and innovative converted paper products to cater to a diverse array of requirements. Working in synergy with our client’s sales offices, our R&D Department makes the most of its consolidated expertise to come up with unique, stylish solutions that are fully in synch with the character of the products for which these solutions are to provide the packaging.
 
Pozzoli’s Graphic Design Division: creating perfection.
Pozzoli's Graphic Design Division is very much a part of its DNA, having been operational since the company was first established. Today, this Division is considered one of the international leaders in graphic design, specializing in CD and DVD packaging (with a particular focus on custom solutions), in the assembly and packing of finished products and in the execution of fulfillment operations. Within Pozzoli - thanks to the consummate professionalism of the in-house personnel and to the highly advanced equipment installed at the facility - technology, expertise and passion can be combined to allow the company's products to reach exceptionally high standards.

CDs and DVDs: cutting-edge production
Alongside its pre-eminence in the packaging field, Pozzoli is also at the forefront of CD and DVD manufacture - a service that perfectly complements those offered by our international client base. Pozzoli's dedication to state-of-the-art technology serves as a guarantee of consistently high manufacturing quality, and the discs are manufactured using production lines equipped with latest-generation automation. Our sophisticated Sonic Solution DVD pre-mastering system can put together all types of audio and video tracks and software content, while the Toolex Big Stone DVD mastering system, complete with galvanic plant, has the capacity to master both DVD-VIDEO and DVD-ROM. CD and DVD labels can be printed in up to 7 colours using both offset and silkscreen technologies on printers that ensure extraordinarily high print quality.

From lithography to optical discs.
Launched in 1968 in Inzago (on the outskirts of Milan) as a lithographic printers, from the very outset the company has specialised in the printing of album covers for the record industry. In 1988, Pozzoli became the first company in Italy to set up a Compact Disc Department , and soon expanded its CD operations to encompass the entire CD production process. Two years later the company reached another milestone:  the first special CD packaging solutions. These one-off solutions, with their extreme functionality and elaborate artistic designs, have become Pozzoli's core business. The rapturous reception given to these special packaging solutions by the international market, as well as the company's commitment to consolidating its relationships with its clients, led to the opening, in rapid succession, of a number of sales offices in various countries around Europe.

In 1998 and 1999, respectively, the company opened two European sales offices - Pozzoli UK in London and Pozzoli Deutschland in Frankfurt - while 2006 saw the inauguration of the French subsidiary in Paris. In this way, Pozzoli has bolstered its presence in the European market and has achieved greater sales penetration in the three countries where the sales subsidiaries are located. Today, thanks to its unrivalled expertise in the graphic design and production fields and to the wealth of experience it has accumulated in the production of CDs and DVDs, Pozzoli offers a comprehensive range of integrated services that is without equal anywhere in Europe.
