FIORINI INTERNATIONAL ITALIA SPA presents its eco rain cover for shopping bags

Fiorini International launches an innovative transparent 100% paper and water-resistant rain cover, a sustainable and natural alternative to the current plastic rain covers designed to reduce the volumes of plastic material resulting from secondary packaging and accessories.
