A lot has changed since April 1968, but our goal of finding simple solutions to make lives easier has been the same in 50 years.

Headquartered in Benavente, where we develop and manufacture the more than 1.500 items that we trade worldwide, we are a team with more than 250 people committed to creating useful, original solutions for our daily lives!

We are a renowned company, nationwide and worldwide, in the field of plastic and paper bags, cling film, aluminium foil and biodegradable solutions. We manufacture and trade food packaging and food storage items, garbage bags and cleaning products. Innovation is in our DNA allowing us to revolutionise the market with our new solutions.

What have we been up to? 

• Listening, observing and questioning about what can be improved.
• Seeing challenges where other saw risk. We have tried, took risks and faced our failures as opportunities to evolve.
• Investing in innovation, technology and in our people. We believe our growth depends on our resources and innovation. 

We want to keep…

• Inventing, creating and manufacturing quality, innovative products that make our customers’ lives easier.
• Researching and developing alternate materials like bioplastics that contribute towards the reduction of our carbon footprint.
• Leading the change, by manufacturing innovative products that allow the minimisation of environmental impact and that add value.

At Silvex we are highly committed to maintaining and permanently improving our Integrated Management System for an effective, competitive management.
