History
The Molybon Group founder Axel Kaufmann started the agency Svenska Senoplast AB in Sweden in 1968, selling sheets and foils to the vacuum packing and packaging industry.
This business is now Molybon Agenturer AB – a market-leading total supplier of materials and machines in the field of thermoforming.
In 1976 Axel Kaufmann broadened the wholesale business to include warehousing of semi-finished plastics. Today that business is called Molybon Industriplast AB.
2005 saw the launch of Molybon Byggplast AB in Olofström. They specialise in supplying glazing products to the construction industry, advertisers and the display market.
