Copag’s history is tied to the history of the Brazilian playing card market. Always a pioneer in playing card manufacturing in Brazil, Copag
has more recently grown into one of the key playing card manufacturers worldwide and is a member of the Carta Mundi family of companies.
Copag, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2008, actually was
founded as Albino Gonçalves e Cia. Importadores
in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. The company started as a
playing card importer and stationary
producer. In 1918, it began to manufacture its own playing
cards and changed its name to Companhia Paulista de Papéis e Artes Gráficas
(“C.O.P.A.G.”). The Company's new facilities in Manaus (in the Brazilian state
of Amazonas) started operations in 1987 and year after year new production
processes have been added to the plant through investment in printing
equipment, automation and productivity gains. Today, Copag card decks (whether
paper or 100% plastic) are available in five continents and in the most
prestigious casinos and championships worldwide. The competitive quality and
prices of Copag plastic playing cards keep the company a step ahead of its
competitors.
Copag maintains a constant focus on developing cutting-edge
technology to better serve customers. They believe in doing everything
necessary to become a market leader through innovation and excellence in every
market they serve. To further emphasize their commitment to quality in plastic
playing cards, Copag obtained ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 Certificates, granted by
international quality control agencies in recognition of Copag's excellence in
quality testing.
