THE GROUP
GROUP PLANTS
The Coind Group currently runs two plants in Italy, one in Emilia-Romagna and one in Veneto.
Castel Maggiore Establishment (BO)
The base in Castel Maggiore (Province of Bologna), in Via Saliceto 22 / H, contains two factories and most of the production lines. Coind’s first and largest plant is devoted to coffee roasting: it is here that precious raw coffee beans arrive from every part of the globe, after being subjected to meticulous checks and laboratory tests.
The destination of different formats is divided between Coind’s own brands (Meseta, Attibassi and Carracci) and its production for private label distributors, tailor-made to fit its clients’ requests.
This is the place where all the various kinds of classic coffee formats are produced:
Here Coind produces its line of Private Label capsules compatible with the Nespresso® *, Lavazza * Espresso Point, Lavazza * A Modo Mio, Dolce Gusto and Espresso Tuo formats, as well as a completely biodegradable compostable format.
Here Coind also produces Private Label ESE Pods: probably the most widespread and universally compatible single-portion format. For the pods, the previously roasted and then ground coffee is dosed and pressed in a 7 gramme bun, wrapped by two thin layers of filter paper.
The Group also produces coffee bean blends and blended ground coffee, both made from the very best varieties of raw coffee.
The Castel Maggiore site is also home to the entire Sanification line.
PKSan is the Coind brand in the sanitation sector: it provides private label solutions relative to cleaning and sanitising domestic, commercial and industrial settings.
The types of products manufactured by the brand are currently:
- Descaling Decalcifiers
- Deter-solvents Degreasers Detergents
- Sanitising Disinfectants
- Special Anti-slip Polishing Products

Factory and base in Noale (VE)
The factory in the Veneto region, in Noale, in the Province of Venice, is dedicated to the production of toiletries and cosmetics.
This factory has been active for 30 years and develops, produces and packages cosmetic products which are marketed in major retail chains under distributors’ private brand labels. Among our biggest private label clients here are the Conad and Coop supermarket chains. The common denominators are the principles which have always driven Coind: passionate attention to quality, to consumers’ health and to workers’ rights, plus respect for the environment and belief in sustainable development.
The territorial roots of the Group
The Coind Group’s plants are closely linked to the history of the region in which they are located. Coind was founded in the 1960s, in the heart of Emilia Romagna in Castel Maggiore, in the province of Bologna. From here it launched and expanded its business – i.e. coffee and other private label products – which would bring great success in the following years.
It is certainly significant that the heart of Coind’s production – i.e. coffee and roasting – began in Emilia Romagna… a food valley admired all over the world for its various food districts but also, now, a packaging powerhouse with an extraordinary concentration of major packaging industries dedicated to product confection and packaging.
A hundred kilometres of excellence that, like a long straight line, crosses the whole of Emilia Romagna: the heart in Bologna and all the limbs stretching out to Modena, Reggio and Parma: a concentration – talking only of the packaging sector – with a turnover of 3 billion euros, 13,000 employees and 170 companies. And then there’s the food sector: Emilia Romagna is the European region with the highest number of PDO and PGI denominated products… a guarantee of product quality and unrivalled excellence.
The Coind Group was born and developed in this unique context, and over time has become part of its hive of flourishing regional excellences.
