Senoplast Klepsch & Co. GmbH

Senoplast Klepsch & Co. GmbH is an Austrian company headquartered in Piesendorf, Austria, specializing in the development and production of coextruded plastic sheets and films. Founded in 1956 by Wilhelm Klepsch in Kaprun, the company began as a small family business focused on recycling old plastic material, which inspired the name 'Senoplast' — a combination of the Latin word 'senex' (old) and 'plast' (plastic). Over more than six decades, Senoplast has grown into a global leader in its field, serving customers in over 60 countries with a 90% export quota. The company operates three production sites in Austria, Mexico, and China, and employs around 810 people worldwide. Its products are used in a wide range of industries, including automotive, commercial vehicle, luggage, sanitary, refrigerator, and advertising. Senoplast is part of the Klepsch Group, which also includes Senosan GmbH, a specialist in high-quality surface solutions for the furniture industry. The senosan® brand is a registered trademark for coextruded plastic sheets and films, known for outstanding surface quality, color brilliance, and mechanical and chemical properties. Since 2013, Günter Klepsch has led the family business, continuing its tradition of innovation and quality.

Senoplast Klepsch & Co. GmbH was founded in 1956 by Wilhelm Klepsch in Kaprun, Austria, when he was just 18 years old. The company's name derives from the Latin word 'senex' (old) and 'plast' (plastic), reflecting its initial focus on collecting and recycling old plastic material. In 1977, Senoplast obtained its first patent for coextruded senosan® ABS/PMMA sheets for sanitary applications, marking a significant innovation in the industry. The company relocated to its current site in Piesendorf in 1978. In 1984, production capacity was expanded, and in 1986, the sister company Senova was founded. Over the years, Senoplast has evolved from a local production company into a global leader in coextruded sheets and films, with production sites in Austria, Mexico, and China. Since 2013, Günter Klepsch has led the family business, continuing its tradition of innovation. The company is part of the Klepsch Group, which also includes Senosan GmbH, specializing in surface solutions for the furniture industry. Senoplast's products are used worldwide in automotive, commercial vehicle, luggage, sanitary, refrigerator, and advertising industries, with a 90% export quota and customers in over 60 countries.
