Universal Paper and Plastics (UPP) is a family business that is Proudly South African, which is why we understand the needs of South African and corporate families so well. The Sher family started UPP in 1950, and UPP has since grown to become one of the leading manufacturers in the tissue paper product industry.

As a family run and owned business with four generations of history, we believe in working together as one. There are four values at the core of our business, namely Integrity, Commitment, Empowerment and Excellence.

Dinu is a proudly local brand that supplies high-quality products for your home, kitchen and bathroom. The Dinu brand is synonymous with style and quality. Our focus falls on high quality printed serviettes, napkins, household towels, and bathroom tissue.

Our rich South African heritage has taught us to express our style, and what better way to show your personality, than making use of our printed Designer Luncheon Napkins, Décor Collection Household Towel or Bathroom Tissue ranges. These beautifully designed and printed paper products are great for a variety of occasions and uses.

By buying locally produced products, both consumers and businesses are making a personal contribution to nation-building. Consumers get an assurance of quality, while members are committed to socially responsible business practices. Similarly, UPP shares a commitment to an uplifting ethos that promotes social and economic change and progress. We believe that we make a meaningful contribution to building South Africa’s economy, alleviating unemployment and retaining existing employment opportunities.

Our promise is to provide high-quality printed products, which are locally-produced, at affordable prices.
