Saica is founded (Sociedad Anónima Industrias Celulosa Aragonesa) in 1943 in Zaragoza (Spain) with six workers at its paper production plant. In 1975 Saica begins an integration process with the acquisition of cardboard packaging (Saica Pack) and integrated waste management (Saica Natur) plants. In 1987 it establishes the first cogeneration plant in the industrial sector in Spain. In 1998 Saica opens up for business in France with Saica Paper and Saica Pack. In 2000 Saica leads the way in grammage reduction with the start-up of its MP9, described as the world's first machine capable of producing grammages up to 75g/m2. In 2011 Saica inaugurates the first Energy Recovery Plant in El Burgo del Ebro (Zaragoza, Spain), avoiding 450,000 tonnes of waste from the paper production process being sent to landfill. In 2012 Saica opens a new Saica Paper plant in Partington, near Manchester (UK). In 2015 Saica begins its diversification with the opening of the Natur Cycle Plus plant, facilities for the production of more than 9,200 tonnes of recycled pellets from recycled Low Density Polyethylene, and continues its diversification process by acquiring flexible packaging plants (Saica Flex). In 2018 its presence in Europe is increased with the acquisition of the French Emin Leydier Group. In 2019 it starts decarbonisation with the inauguration of the first biomass boiler in Venizel.
