Sofidel

Sofidel is an Italian tissue-paper group founded in 1966 and headquartered in Porcari, Lucca. It manufactures paper for household and professional hygiene, combining paper mills, converting operations and distribution across Europe and the United States. Its current corporate website reports a presence in 13 countries, more than 9,500 people, over €4 billion in group net sales and more than 2 million tonnes of production capacity. These are group-level website figures, not specifications for individual products. The business has four complementary lines: consumer brands, private label, Away from Home and parent reels. Consumer brands include Regina, Nicky, Sopalin, Le Trèfle, Hakle, Softis, Nalys, Cosynel and KittenSoft, with assortments varying by country. Papernet supplies professional hygiene products and dispensing systems for hospitality, healthcare, workplaces and public spaces. Private label programs support retailers, while parent reels serve independent tissue converters. The production cycle runs from cellulose preparation and parent-reel formation through printing, embossing, perforation, converting, packaging and palletising. The Duffel site publishes Through-Air-Dried (TAD) capability. Papernet’s professional range includes DissolveTech and FullOne/HighFast dispensing solutions; their characteristics apply to the relevant products, not automatically to the entire group portfolio. The location directory brings together 42 source-backed sites across 13 countries. Shared-address activities are grouped: the Porcari headquarters and mill at Via Lazzareschi 23 are one record, and Wernshausen’s O/W/T units are one industrial complex. Most map pins come directly from Sofidel’s published links. The Inola point uses a U.S. Census street-address match and Ingrandes a French national address-database street/industrial-zone point because the official map links are inconsistent with their addresses. Dublin is a registered office, not a production plant, with an OpenStreetMap building-level point. Each location states its coordinate precision.
