The future of a long tradition
Down-to-earth mentality and continuity – for Astorplast this is the best basis for the ability to develop new products with passion. For over 50 years we have been producing technical pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes – exclusively at our headquarters in the Swabian town of Alfdorf.
And the centre of focus has always been: You as the customer and your specific requirements.
