Registered Trademark CARTE DOZIO®
To protect its image and strengthen the company’s reputation, on July 16, 2021, Carte Dozio officially became a registered trademark in the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO). This form of branding allows products to be uniquely identified, serves as a guarantee of quality, and represents a further step forward in the development of the company’s assets.

Safety and Quality for Our Products
Carte Dozio obtains certification according to the BRC Global Standard for Packaging Materials, GFSI-compliant and recognized internationally. The UNI EN 15593 certification obtained in 2011 is replaced by this global standard, designed for companies supplying food contact materials (FCM) to protect consumers through shared product safety and quality criteria.

Galilei 19
A new warehouse for product storage is added next to the existing facility and offices at 19 Via Galilei. Part of the operations is delegated to an external logistics provider.

2009 Martina and Gilberto Dozio
Carte Dozio certifies its management system according to the ISO 9001 standard, demonstrating the efficiency and complexity of its organization. Gabriella decides to leave the business to pursue new projects, while Marco’s eldest children, Gilberto and Martina, join the company.

2000 Important Partnerships
By this time, Carte Dozio’s operations had been completely moved from Milan to Bresso. Even during the challenging years marked by the onset of the Great Economic Recession, the company continued to grow, mainly thanks to the strong, decades-long relationships with leading Italian and international companies in their respective product categories, able to offer customers excellent products and services.

1990 Bresso
The expansion of the converting activity and its commercial offerings continues at a steady pace. Gabriella, Adriano’s daughter, joins the company’s management, and during the same period Carte Dozio becomes the Italian distributor for the world’s leading manufacturers of certain specialized products for packaging, preservation, and protection.

1981 Marco Dozio
Adriano’s son, Marco, joins the company. The generational change leads to the introduction of new, innovative product types in the flexible packaging sector, focusing on market niches with higher technological content: long-fiber filter paper and anticorrosive products for metal preservation.

1971 The Birth of Carte Dozio Srl
Luigi Dozio passed away in 1965, and his son Adriano took over the ownership of the company. A warehouse was built at 15 Via Galilei in Bresso, in the province of Milan, and at the same time CARTE DOZIO SRL was established. The converting activity was further developed through the purchase of new machinery, and as a result the company increasingly focused on meeting product customization needs, supplying industrial clients with paper products made to specific requirements.

1961 Post-war Development
During the years of post-war recovery, the trading activity continues, alongside the beginning of paper converting with the purchase of the first rewinding machine and a paper cutter, installed in the new warehouse at 52 Via Lomazzo in Milan.

1945 Adriano Dozio
After World War II, the founder Luigi is joined in the company by his son Adriano. The business headquarters is then moved to Milan, to Via Monviso 23, where the offices remain until the late 1980s.

1937 The Beginnings – Luigi Dozio
The first records of the activities of Dozio Luigi & C. date back to the late 1930s. The company, which deals in the trade of paper and twine, is based in Merate, in the province of Lecco, and has a warehouse and an office located on Corso Garibaldi in Merate.
