history
The company was founded in 1936 by Willy Blaser. The company developed and sold shoe polish and cleaning products . After his son Peter Blaser joined the company in 1973, the product range was expanded to include cooling lubricants. The cooling lubricants product group now accounts for 90% of sales. The international expansion from 1974 onwards was connected with the expansion of the product portfolio. Initially, a sales network was established in Europe and overseas. Today this includes its own branches in the 60 largest industrial nations.
The first foreign production company was put into operation in Goshen ( USA ) in 1981 . Production plants followed in the People's Republic of China (1996) and India (2001).
In 2010 the third generation took over the management of the company. Marc Blaser has around 600 employees worldwide, around 300 of whom work at the headquarters.
