A trusted relationship built
day by day on measurable results

This is our value proposition for the companies that work with us.

Safety stock management

Our safety stock service keeps the most used materials available immediately, ensuring production continuity and reducing the risk of interruptions. It helps prevent supply delays, manage sudden demand peaks and handle machine downtime, improving operational efficiency and reliability.

Efficient scheduled order management

Scheduled order management optimises purchasing through annual agreements that lock prices and plan deliveries around production needs. This brings cost stability, better predictability and efficient use of resources and supplies.

Specialised consulting

Snap S.r.l. offers specialised consulting in engineering plastics, with tailored technical support for choosing the right materials and machining processes. The goal is to optimise production and develop efficient, high-quality solutions for each customer.

Sustainability
as an essential
value

For Snap, sustainability is not an abstract idea but a responsibility that guides every business choice. For years we have invested in environmentally friendly technologies and production processes.

The path to sustainability is ongoing: we aim to continually improve our environmental performance with advanced technologies and a company culture that cares about the environment.

Frequently asked questions about SNAP Srl

What does SNAP Srl do?

SNAP Srl machines and processes engineering plastics and makes custom components for the bottling, packaging and automation industries: cutting to size, milling, turning, bending, bonding, PVC welding and other operations, up to custom finished parts made to drawing. We also offer safety stock management, scheduled orders and material selection consulting.

Where is SNAP Srl located?

Our headquarters are at Via Torelle, 5, 10091 Alpignano (TO), near Turin, Italy. Offices are open Monday to Friday, 8:00 to 17:30, and we serve customers in Italy and across Europe. Address and details are on the SNAP contact page.

Which plastics do you machine?

We machine Polizene® polyethylenes (PE-UHMW, PE-HMW, PE-HD), POM C, PET, nylon (PA 6, PA 6G, PA 66 and filled grades), PVC, polypropylene, PTFE, PEEK and polycarbonate, as well as glass-epoxy laminate, Bakelite and polyurethane rubbers. Data sheets are in our engineering plastics catalogue.

Do you make prototypes, small batches and 3D prints?

Yes. Starting from the customer’s drawing we handle prototyping and production, in small or large batches. For prototypes, functional parts and small series we also offer resin and filament 3D printing, with high-detail technical resins and materials such as PLA, ABS and nylon.

Which catalogue products does SNAP offer?

Besides custom machining, our catalogue includes levelling feet, slat chains and modular belts, chain guide profiles in Polizene 1000, conveyor belt components, roller track profiles and special rubber machining. See the products and materials page.

Which industries does SNAP Srl work for?

We make plastic components mainly for the bottling, packaging and automation industries, and we work for sectors such as automotive, construction, composites, fibres, film, medical, pipes, rigid packaging, moulding, wires and cables. Available operations are described on the machining and services page.

How do you choose the right plastic for a component?

It depends on how the part will work: loads and wear, friction and sliding, operating temperature, contact with water or chemicals, required tolerances and budget. As a rule, UHMW-PE suits guides and sliding parts, POM C precise mechanical parts, PTFE and PEEK high temperatures and aggressive chemical environments. If in doubt you can ask for technical advice free of charge on the most suitable material and machining.
