Sofidel Paper Products

Sofidel is an Italian multinational company and a global leader in the production of tissue paper for sanitary and domestic use. Founded in 1966 by Emi Stefani and Giuseppe Lazzareschi in Porcari, Italy, the company has grown from a local manufacturer into the second-largest tissue paper producer in Europe. Its products include toilet paper, kitchen towels, napkins, and handkerchiefs, which are sold under well-known consumer brands like Regina, Sopalin, and Nicky.

The company operates an integrated production cycle, from the manufacturing of tissue reels to the conversion into finished consumer goods. Sofidel's manufacturing footprint is truly international, with major production facilities located in Italy, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Poland, and the United States. Its American operations, headquartered in Pennsylvania, include large-scale integrated plants in Ohio and Oklahoma. The Group remains a privately held entity, owned and managed by the founding Stefani and Lazzareschi families, and is recognized for its commitment to environmental sustainability through partnerships with organizations like the WWF.
