About Us
“Our story began in black and white and over the years has taken on all the colours under the sun”.
A history of quality, innovation, and people that laid its foundations in 1976. Driven by the desire to be the reference point in the packaging sector for the production of paper shopping bags, the company’s entrepreneurial path is characterized by cutting-edge technology, customer service, research & development, and environmental protection. Years of experience and a feel for innovation combine with the human capital and technical expertise to make us the reference company in the market of shopping bags.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN IDEA
It is the story of a small company that was founded in a town in the Vicenza area and has become one of the most remarkable production groups in the shopping bag sector. The company is an international reference that has made the productive strength and creativity of North-Eastern Italy known all over the world, becoming synonymous with the quality associated with the Made in Italy products. Today, the most prestigious brands consider GPS the ideal partner to which they can entrust the production of high-quality shopping bags with their own brand.

EFFICIENCY AND ORGANIZATION
Cutting-edge technology, efficiency, and organization are the characterising elements of the production chain, along which the careful selection of all raw materials destined for the production process is carried out through meticulous checks of all processing stages, fully meeting the high standards required by the customer.

Made in Italy
“The guidelines that drive us and inspire our people”.
Since its foundation in 1976, GPS Bags has preserved the values and authenticity of Italian quality: environmentally friendly materials of the highest quality that give life to products of excellence, fully Made in Italy. The purpose of our work is to convey the care we put into the production of our shopping bags and to guarantee the customer the complete customization of the chosen item. We care about our territory and we are proud of our identity because we want to provide a product that represents culture, research, and innovation, in full compliance with the regulations.
ECO-Philosophy
OUR ENVIRONMENTAL PHILOSOPHY
Sustainability and innovation are fundamental values for our company: they are the basis of an articulated project that we undertook several years ago and that we have summarized in an ethical manifesto called “eco-philosophy”. It is a new way of doing business that involves the products we make but also internal policies, research and development projects, as well as the energy-saving choices adopted for the construction of our new plants.
ECOPHILOSOPHY stemmed from a spirit of responsibility and awareness in which GPS recognizes itself and feels it can lead by example: because every contribution – even small – makes a difference, for the planet and for people. A tangible contribution that is also reflected in our products and in the ethical policies adopted by the company.
