Orlandi’s roots can be traced back to 1865 when the company was established as a financial printing business. In 1915, custom made chemically pure paper was manufactured and became useful for fragrance testing. To this day, cosmetic chemists all over the world consider Orlandi brand paper to be the industry benchmark for developing and evaluating fragrances.

In the early 1950’s, Orlandi developed the blotter scenting process allowing the application of fragrance to printed paper, revolutionizing fine fragrance advertising. Cost effective direct mail and in-store sampling became possible and millions of blotter cards shipped daily for department store mailings and sampling.

Orlandi expanded into contract packaging in the mid 1960’s and in the 1970’s Orlandi diversified their scented paper products to include car air fresheners, drawer liners, cards, stationery and sachets.

The TruEssence® division was formed in 1990 when Orlandi developed improved micro-encapsulation technologies. This allowed for superior fragrance renditions and new possibilities in magazine fragrance strips. Orlandi has become one of the premiere worldwide manufacturers of fine fragrance sampling with TruEssence® fragrance strips.

In July 2003, Orlandi's newest manufacturing facility opened in Farmingdale, New York. This 46,000 square foot facility is home to the new Corporate Headquarters as well as manufacturing space for an enhanced printing department, pre-press area, and additional packaging and manufacturing equipment.

Orlandi's innovative products include the patented ColorKiss®, iApply®, Versa Label®, Oasis Label™, Reveal Label™, and Tat2Go™ cosmetic and fragrance applicator technologies which offer enhanced single-use sampling as well as turn-key retail opportunities.
