Twinplast has been an established name in the processing of polymerss for more than 50 years. What started as a one-man business, has grown into a professional company at a 10,000 m\u00b2 site where hi-tech milling and cutting machines as well as extrusion lines give form to all your ideas. What started with cutting ceiling tiles, has grown into a company that supplies to various sectors such as to construction, pharmacy, automotive, entertainment, furniture, industry, etc. You will find our products everywhere\u2026\u2026yes, you will even find milled and cut pieces from Twinplast in space (especially in the Tesla that is floating around). By continuing to invest and evolving, we will also be at the disposal of our current and future customers the coming 50 years to take a constructive approach with them and develop solutions to meet their expectations.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
