Created as MaiSA on July 1, 1976 by Pablo Enrique Mai, the primary objective of this well-known company specialising in teabag packaging equipment was that of becoming undisputed leader in the niche market for single chamber teabags. Over 3500 machines sold worldwide, with a dominant market position in Latin America and a consolidated distribution network across Africa and South East Asia, are proof of the company’s excellent reputation for reliable, well-built, cost-efficient solutions. Since 2017, and to broaden its horizons, MAI S.A.U. becomes part of the IMA Group of Italy. This partnership provides a greater global presence and our clients have a broader offering based on the joint experience.

OpenLab – Sustainability at the centre
Beyond the tea bag packaging, IMA is committed to increasing sustainable practices to reduce emissions and test alternative packaging materials, implementing advanced eco-friendly solutions throughout the industrial process to rise to the challenge of tea sustainability. This environmental commitment applies through adapting tea bag packaging technology to the new packaging materials, and testing alternative processes to preserve the resources and minimise the packaging waste.
Over the past few years, IMA’s approach to sustainability has led to the design and adaptation of packaging technologies to effectively handle compostable materials, in collaboration with OPENLab, IMA Group’s network of technological laboratories and testing areas dedicated to research on sustainable materials, technologies and production optimisation processes.
