The Isovolta AG is an Austrian chemical company Constantia Industries AG .
The company, originally founded by Herbert Turnauer in 1949 in Werndorf near Graz in Styria, manufactured electrical insulation materials from composite materials. The company's name was Isovolta Österreichische Isolierstoffwerke Kom.Ges. H. Turnauer & Co.
Today Isovolta is headquartered in Wiener Neudorf in the industrial area Industriezentrum Niederösterreich Süd and produces composite materials in numerous plants in Germany and abroad. The production facilities in Austria are in Werndorf near Graz and in Wiener Neudorf.
In addition to electrical insulation materials for high, medium and low voltage applications, technical and decorative laminates are produced for various industries.
The company employs around 1,700 people (as of 2012) and is more than 90% export-oriented.
In 1973 the company, then still owned by Turnauer, received the state award and thus the right to use the federal coat of arms in business dealings.
The brand and company name Isovolta , which is still used today, is made up of insulating material and the name of the researcher and founder of the theory of electricity, Alessandro Volta .
Products
The best-known products are the Max panels , the production of which was split off and, together with Funder, represents the FunderMax brand. Another important product division is that of plastics for aircraft cabins. But the original product range of insulating materials was also retained and still forms a large part of production.
