OMNIA PACKAGING INC. DISRUPTS THE INDUSTRY WITH INNOVATIVE &
SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING SOLUTIONS.

Sustainability has been a priority for every business for the past decade. With an unprecedented bourden on the global manufacturing and supply chain, it has become even more paramount to deliver a functional product that is sustainable as well as cost effective.


Omnia Packaging Inc. bridges that gap by offering sustainable, highly performing packaging solutions in paper & plastic through its brands MUSTANG by Omnia Plastic & Omnia Plastic.

About the Parent Company – The Sunino Group

The Sunino Group was founded in 1950 and it specialises in turnkey packaging solutions. Today, the company boasts production plants throughout Eastern Europe & Asia and owns six subsidiary businesses that handle the lion share of the packaging sector in their

respective markets. Said subsidiaries are Plastic Legno S.p.A., Dream Plast, Plastic Technology, Belgrad Rackpart, Omnia Technologies, Omnia Plast & Omnia Packaging Inc.

Throughout the many decades of activity in the sector, the Sunino Group has seen the rapid growth of the packaging sector fuelled by plastic’s ability to cost-effectively protect and preserve products as well as its subsequent decline brought forth by dwindling resources and an increasing need for sustainable products. The longevity in the market space enabled The Sunino Group to recognise the scale of the challenge and shift production processes to address evolving market needs. To date the company has significantly ramped up the use of recycled materials, increased usage of green products throughout its production process, implemented chemical recycling technologies and developed a closed loop system that closely monitors traceability and allows for a reduced transportation carbon footprint. 


The know-how acquired by the Sunino Group almost a century ago, translates into know-how of its Canadian Subsidiary, Omnia Packaging Inc. The company has in fact opened a 20,000 sq/ft industrial plant in Guelph, ON, Canada where they will manufacture sustainable packaging solutions in paper as well as plastic for the North American Market. The Canadian production plant is poised to follow in the footsteps of its Italian counterpart and cement its manufacturing processes in ethical & sustainable practices.
