A forest that grows together with our commitment

The International Day of Forests, celebrated every year on March 21, is an invitation to recognize the irreplaceable value of trees and forest ecosystems in safeguarding life on the planet. Forests are not only “green lungs”: they are habitats, resources, protection, and the future.

Sustainability is an integral part of BD Plast’s industrial identity. Not an addition, but a strategic choice rooted in production processes, in the design of our products, and in the collaborations we activate throughout the entire supply chain.

It is with this spirit that our partnership with Treedom was born, an international platform that promotes forest regeneration through agroforestry projects with high environmental and social impact. Thanks to this collaboration, we created the BD Plast corporate forest: a concrete, transparent, and traceable initiative that helps offset part of our remaining emissions and generate value for the territories involved.

As of today, we have planted over 400 trees in Tanzania, actively involving local farmers in a path of training, care, and shared responsibility. Each tree is photographed, geolocated, and monitored over time, as proof of a commitment that does not end with the symbolic act of planting, but that grows and strengthens over time.

The positive impacts are many:

  • improvement of soil quality
  • protection of local biodiversity
  • generation of fair and sustainable income
  • absorption of atmospheric CO₂

Together with Treedom, BD Plast directly contributes to achieving numerous Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda, including life on land, climate action, decent work, responsible consumption, and partnerships for sustainable development.

We are convinced that sustainability, to be authentic, must leave visible traces. Our forest is a concrete example of this: a living testimony to the link between industrial innovation and respect for the environment.

We celebrate life that grows on March 21. At BD Plast, we are committed to nurturing it every day.

Frequently Asked Questions

BD Plast is an Italian company founded in 1986, specialising in the design, manufacture and sale of filtration systems for plastic polymers. Its product range includes manual, hydraulic and continuous-flow filter changers, static filters, components for extrusion lines and accessories. With 40 years of experience, the company manages the entire process: from engineering to on-site installation.

The manual filter changer is the most cost-effective solution, suitable for standard production runs where a brief interruption to the process is acceptable. The hydraulic filter changer allows filter elements to be replaced whilst the plant is running, making it ideal for high production capacities. The continuous-flow filter changer, on the other hand, ensures a perfectly uninterrupted flow of polymer, eliminating waste and interruptions in the production cycle: it is the ideal choice for lines where process consistency is critical.

The Clean Changer is BD Plast’s patented innovation, designed specifically for the extrusion industry. It is a high-performance solution that meets the quality and continuity requirements of the most advanced production lines. For technical details and to assess its suitability for your process, please contact our sales or technical team.

The range is much broader. In addition to various types of filter changers, BD Plast manufactures adaptors, bends, necks, accessories, support trolleys and hydraulic power units. Each component is designed for maximum integration into extrusion lines, whether for cast film, blown film or coating lines.
