Let’s get to know each other first!
We develop and manufacture coated granules and synthetic resin flooring systems for professional installers based in over 50 countries. As a medium-sized SME with 40 employees, we have grown to become the standard for colouring and mixing granulates for plastic floor and wall systems. We do not handle installation ourselves. The development and production of coated granulates and synthetic resin flooring systems for professional installers is our DNA. We aim to further strengthen this position through a more intensive commercial approach both at home and abroad, and by renewing our product range.
