About Barplas

Our Story

Purpose. Precision. Performance.

From Bradford to the Bekaa Valley — three decades of manufacturing expertise, now serving Lebanon and the wider Middle East.

A Family Built on Plastic

The Barplas story begins in Britain.

In 1994, A.W. Barghout & son M.B. Barghout co-founded Barplas Ltd in Bradford, England. From a single product line, the company grew into a full range of pails, buckets and lever-lid containers — becoming the second largest manufacturer of cylindrical plastic containers in the UK, with 10% market share and 25% of all roller paint trays sold in Britain. In 2006, Barplas Ltd was acquired by RPC Group plc, then Europe's leading rigid plastics manufacturer.

As one chapter closed, another opened.

From Bradford to Beirut

A.W. Barghout co-founded Barplas Lebanon with his nephew Mohamad Abdul Hafiz Barghout, who today owns and leads the company. The same family, the same expertise that built one of Britain's largest plastic packaging companies — now serving Lebanon and the wider Middle East.

Sustainability

Powered by the Bekaa sun.

Our factory runs entirely on solar energy — a full rooftop installation generating clean power from one of the sunniest valleys in the Middle East. In a country where reliable power has never been guaranteed, we invested in energy independence from day one. Good for our business. Good for Lebanon.
