Our journey to a trusted partner in packaging solutions

Since 1945, we have grown from a small paper bag manufacturer from Rauma, Finland into a specialist in thermoformed plastic packaging, delivering high-quality, customer-focused solutions. Firmly rooted in Europe, with a global mindset.

The story of Satatuote

The Marva family, originally herring fishermen from Åland, settled in Rauma, Finland in the 1850s. Olavi Marva’s father, a sailor who circled the globe three times, vowed his sons would not go to sea if he died young—which he did in 1918. Olavi left school to support the family, turning to entrepreneurship.

In 1945, he founded a company that grew into the Marva Group, now an international business with 100 employees. Satatuote began the same year, initially producing paper bags for Alko.

Today, it is a trusted strategic partner for both the pharmaceutical and food industries, specializing in high-quality, thermoformed plastic packaging. Family business values and a long-term vision continue to guide the work, ensuring your success tomorrow as well.
