Company

Fifty years of passion for films
combined with constant technological innovation

Founded in 1967 by Vigo Sauro Ponsiani, Jolly Plastic is based among the hills of Montalbano, in Larciano (Pistoia), just a few kilometers from Florence. Thanks to the commitment of the Ponsiani family — now in its second generation — the company has over fifty years of experience in producing technical films for various sectors, from food to non-food. We operate successfully both nationally and internationally, combining tradition with a continuous pursuit of cutting-edge solutions.

Mission

We are aware that the use of plastics requires a responsible and transparent approach. That is why we are committed to reducing consumption, optimizing recovery and promoting the circular economy by investing in innovative technologies, energy efficiency and continuous training. Our goal is to deliver high-quality products while minimizing environmental impact and contributing to an increasingly sustainable supply chain.

Vision

We believe in dialogue and active collaboration with our clients. We start from their needs and transform them into customized technical films, the result of hands-on experience, passion and an innovative spirit. At Jolly Plastic, a family-oriented approach, an international vision and a commitment to continuous improvement come together to deliver effective, forward-looking solutions.
