Our Beginnings

ZECA SRL is an Italian family-owned SME, established in 1983, and based 20km from the centre of Piacenza, Italy. The group was founded by Antonio &Maja Campagnoli, with the aim of applying an entrepreneurial touch to Antonio’s passion for applied science and expertise in chemistry.

At the beginning of the group’s operations, the core business was personalised packaging solutions. Later, Antonio’s invention of extruded mesh sponges marked the commercial turning point of the company. In 2000, Professor Antonio & Maja Campagnoli created the Natura Amica brand. Today the Group offers a complete and wide range of products for Personal Care, Home Care and Pet Care, as well as Industrial Packaging.

All ZECA products have been designed as innovative solutions to specific modern world necessities, combining the traditional chemistry experience of Antonio with new functionalities and applications dedicated to the modern world.

Our Focus on Innovation

Innovation and Research & Development have always been at the heart of all our operations, across all sectors we operate in. Antonio’s vast knowledge of chemistry and applied sciences has been appreciated through various obtained patents, and lead to numerous cross-industry discoveries.

These include:

The use of aluminium applied to TNT (a non-woven fabric), acting as a thin layer and used as an antibacterial painkiller for the Army’s NBC kit (Nuclear, Bacteriological and Chemical);
The creation of cosmetic, personal, home and pet care formulas based on aluminium rock (a solubilised salt that has antibacterial, pain relieving and disinfectant properties) as a result of his research on problems caused by military boots to soldiers’ feet during the Gulf War;
The invention of the mesh net sponge, then transferred to many international and multinational companies, and now known as the ‘loofah’.

Our Responsibility

We make it our mission to give back to those that give to us. As we are born in Italy, it is important for us to protect and embrace our heritage in all of our operations. We take pride in being a small family-owned Italian group, and show this through giving back to the Italian community. We cooperate with many charities to ensure we are supporting the community, that continues to support us.

From organizing fund-raising galas to selling Panettone for Christmas in the town squares of Piacenza, and chocolate eggs in our heritage streets for Easter, financing scholarships for nursing courses, donating clothes and blankets to the homeless, and providing fun activities for children with autism, we could not do all of this without the continuous support of the charities and organizations we work with. We strive to seek all possible opportunities to help, and always respond when we are called and needed.

Our efforts and actions to give back to our community were recognized by the magazine Bio & Consumi in October 2020, where we won the Bio Award in the Charity Initiative division, for our charitable contributions in the medical and social fields.
