History

Our story started in 1957 when Joannes Schutte from Amsterdam noticed the increasing use of plastic bread bags. He developed the aluminum Aluclip, which proved to be a hole in the market.

Nowadays the bakery and bread segment is still our main market segment. Like Joannes Schutte in his days, our people realize what the packaging market needs by listening carefully to our customers, followed by playing with our products. After all there is always room for improvement. That is why we are the market leader in Europe.
