Pairis family first dealt in plastics when in 1954 Emmanuel Pairis started producing plastic mirrors for bicycles and plastic motifs. In 1962 the premises moved to Moschato in a small plant where the first steps towards automated production of blow bottles are taken.
Two years later Emmanuel Pairis sets up a partnership company under a limited form in Tavros. It is the time when his merchandise can be found on the market shelves.

After 2 years the partnership is ceased and in 1968 a new manufacturing unit of plastic bottles and closures is set up in Kaminia district in Piraeus. In 1974 it evolved to a Societe Anonyme under name “E. PAIRIS S.A.”. In 1980 the company moved to its wholly owned manufacturing facilities and corporate offices in Aspropyrgos – Attica, expanding into additional product lines of bottles and closures destined for food and lubricant industry.

In 1996 the company is awarded the ISO 9001:2000 certificate by TUV CERT certification body.

In 1997 it officially enters the Athens Stock Exchange Market.

In 1998 the company is granted the title of “a Certified Vendor for Plastic Bottles” for Unilever HPC Europe.

In 2001 the acquisition of its competitive company POLYPACK S.A. takes place. In the same year, additional lines for the production of litter bags are installed.

In 2002 E. PAIRIS S.A. sets up a joint venture along with ELOPAK PLASTIC SYSTEMS (a Norwegian colossal company in the field of cartonpack and plastic packing) under the name ELOPAK PLASTIC SYSTEM HELLAS S.A. This new manufacturing unit is located in Aeginion of Pieria in Northern Greece producing plastic bottles and closures for milk and juices.

In 2004 the company invests in advanced information systems and particularly in the SAP / R3 application system aiming at a prompt and better observation of its business activities.

In 2006 it acquires a ‘UN approval’ (10Lt,   20Lt) certification and a ‘CRC’ (Child Resistant Closure) certification for the production of jerrycans and closures.
