ATP Graphics opens new plant for adhesive coatings

ATP Graphics recently opened in Germany its modern production plant for water-based adhesive coatings.  The opening ceremony was followed by a summer festival for more than 500 guests. Regular guided tours of the new facility were offered throughout the day and guests of all ages enjoyed carriage rides, Segway rides and fun on a large bouncy castle.

The overall investment of ca. 20 million euro for the site includes the construction of a production and warehousing facility with a 12’000 sq.m. floor area together with an 860 sq.m.  office complex. The central focus point of the new factory is a new 70 m long, state-of-the-art coating line with clean-air manufacturing allowing ATP to offer adhesive tapes with exceptionally high quality optical appearance.

The new production facility will create up to 50 new jobs for highly trained staff. In addition ATP will be offering more training places for new job-starters.  Every year the company offers school leavers training places in various departments including the laboratory, engineering, warehousing, logistics and customer service.

The company manufactures single- and double-sided adhesive tapes from a wide range of adhesives and backing materials, including self-adhesive and thermally-activated adhesive products for a wide range of customers. The manufacturing processes used by ATP comply with the very latest technological and environmental standards with adhesives being developed exclusively in-house.
