RDM Ovaro: A Playground for Creativity and Flexibility
Ovaro isn’t just a production site—it’s a place where bold ideas come to life. Producing 110,000 tonnes of solid board each year, Ovaro blends technical precision with ingenuity, ensuring every sheet of ESKA premium board meets the highest standards. Here, craftsmanship is a mindset.
With over a century of legacy, Ovaro celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2023- an important milestone in a story of tradition and transformation. And the evolution continues. A new thermal power plant now reduces CO2 emissions by 30%, optimizes energy use, cuts water consumption, and minimizes noise. A meaningful step forward for people and planet.
The Italian Art of Reinvention
Home to La Cartiera di Ovaro, established in 1923—a beacon of Italian heritage and relentless innovation. This site has constantly adapted to market needs, producing boards that push boundaries. The ESKA Classic Collection, a staple for luxury packaging, publishing, and stationery, embodies this fusion of excellence and sustainability.
Agile, precise and fast, Ovaro delivers with purpose. Thanks to cutting-edge equipment and a keen eye for detail, it guarantees speed and performance – without compromising on sustainability. Ovaro’s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint ensures that every product is as responsible as it is remarkable.
A Commitment That Runs Deep
Sustainability at Ovaro is rooted in continuous progress and concrete action. The latest upgrade to its Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant marks a major step forward, with a 30% cut in CO2 emissions, improved energy efficiency, reduced water consumption, and lower noise levels.
Each of these improvements strengthens Ovaro’s contribution to ESKA’s circular economy model, supporting a production approach where resources are preserved, and performance meets purpose.
