THE STORY
FIBRE DRUMS ITALIA S.r.l.
was founded in 1953 and it was given the name "Contenitor";
it began its activity as manufacturer of masonite packging
and drums.
In the early 60s masonite drums were replaced
by Kraft paper drums for whose production, the plant
was modernized and, in same cases, substituted.
In 1984 the first line for the production
of cardboard angle bars was introduced (first production
line in Italy).
In 1987 the lagal name "Contenitor"
was changed into the current name FIBRE DRUMS
ITALIA S.r.l.
In the 1990 the second production line
was purchased.
In 1992 the firm, aiming at specializing
in angle bars, moved the production of paper drums to
another business - Kraft System S.r.l. - in Latina,
of witch FIBRE DRUMS ITALIA S.r.l.
is currently an ordinary shareholder.
In addition to the four still existing
production lines (the latest of which, completely electronical
and equipped with an automatizated line end) a system
has been recently applied to one of these lines in order
to manufacture angle bars for circular contours (type
S), mainly used to protect the reel heads of high quality
paper; moreover, FIBRE DRUMS ITALIA S.r.l.
commercializes fibre drums, corrugated and flat board
and other cardboard products for the handling and shipping
of goods.
