Pirlo Gmbh & Co

About us

Pirlo - Customised Packaging Excellence since 1908

Who we are

Pirlo is an Austrian, family-owned manufacturer specialising in metal packaging and laminate tubes for demanding applications. Founded in 1908, we combine engineering precision, premium printing, and reliable European manufacturing to deliver customised and bespoke packaging that protects products, strengthens brands, and performs across the supply chain. Our production sites in Austria (Kufstein, Söll and Korneuburg) and Poland (Pionki) support customers across food, cosmetics & personal care, OTC, chemical-technical markets, etc.
What we make
Metal packaging (tinplate & aluminium)

Whether a customised solution or a standard can, we offer a comprehensive portfolio of metal packaging: AluCaps, screw-cap tins, slip-lid cans, plug-lid cans, open-top cans (incl. easy-open options), lever-lid cans, round bottles, drums, canisters, pails & hobbocks (up to 30 L). Our packaging is tight, stable, recyclable and easy to handle. We also offer customised high-precision printing on tinplate and aluminium.
Laminate tubes (flexible tube solutions)

Where a tube format is preferred, Pirlo supplies laminate tubes with outstanding printability and finishing (digital printing, spot varnishing, hot foil stamping). Options include mono-material PP (PirlOne) for design-for-recycling, PCR-HDPE content and autoclavable tube solutions for bulk materials requiring sterilization. These choices are PPWR-aligned to support evolving sustainability requirements.
