The ITS Detergenti production plant at Seregno (MI) comprises 2 departments.

Soap-making Department

Italsilva is still actively involved in the manufacturing of soap. With over a century of experience in the sector, in 1996 ITS Detergenti designed and launched new soap based detergents, opening up the “Marseille products market” for laundry care, household and personal beauty care products. The soap-making installations currently achieve an annual production of 35,000 tons of finished soap. The packaging department for laundry and toiletry soaps numbers 6 complete, totally automated production lines.

Since 1950, the entire soap-making process, including product marking, production and packaging, has been carried out on automated lines. Back in 1942, soap was marked by hand, modeled and packaged one piece at a time.
Nowadays, Italsilva makes use of world-class production installations for soap and glycerol. Sophisticated advanced technology and ongoing evolution allow for the production of reliable and competitive high quality products conforming to increasingly stringent European Union norms.

ITS currently produces soap for some of the world's leading cosmetics manufacturers, exporting 35% of its soap and soap bar production.
