Circular Economy: From Theory to Practice
The circular economy is often viewed as a concept filled with theory but lacking practical implementation. Many see it as labor-intensive and not cost-effective.
However, DLM TAPPI’s story is quite the opposite. Founded in 1987 in Opera, near Milan, by Antonio Montanari, the company began by producing hydraulic bows and soon expanded its expertise to polymeric plastic caps used to protect threads.
A Global Impact with a Local Touch
Today, DLM TAPPI specializes exclusively in protective caps, with 55% of its production exported abroad and a significant portion of the remaining products sold in Italy also reaching international markets.
Federtec, representing the Italian fluid component industry, reported that over 60% of the national production of fluid components crosses borders, highlighting the company’s substantial contribution to the sector’s trade balance.
