History
Plaxtiglass was founded in 1958 as a private company, whose core business was the production of plastic articles using thermoforming.
In 1990, Plaxtiglass acquired Due Erre International, another leading company in the vacuum thermoforming sector. In 1995 the renamed Plax Group also acquired full control of Askerz.
In 2006, Plax Group acquired another leading company in its sector, Rodan, expanding its range of thermoformed products and acquiring high frequency welding technology.
Lampia was founded in 1961 and its core business is the production of molds and the related production of plastic articles using injection molding.
In 2006, Lampia and its subsidiary Lampia Rom (headquarters in Romania) were acquired by Plax Group.
In 2007, Plax Group founded the third company in the injection molding sector, Wanox, located in Suzhou (China), thus taking the group's production to Asia.
