history
In 1955, Hermann D. Krages acquired the area of the Zefa panel plant in Leutkirch. Krages, the son of the Bremen timber merchant Louis Krages , owned two other factories that produced hardboard . In Leutkirch, hardboard was mainly coated with plastic. At the end of the 1950s, the first plastic press plates were developed in the factory. In 1962 the decision was made to set up their own chipboard production. In 1976 ten presses were in operation which produced around 100,000 m² of plastic sheets per day. These were used in interior design , the furniture industry and door production. At that time, the company had around 1,000 employees. Pfleiderer's first investment took place in 1983.
In 2011 Thermopal GmbH was one of eight subsidiaries of the Pfleiderer Group. 460 people were employed in the Leutkirch plant. They manufactured a wide variety of wood-based materials in multiple shifts. The company premises were 190,000 m², of which 90,000 m² were built on.
On January 1, 2013, Thermopal GmbH was renamed Pfleiderer Leutkirch GmbH and is a subsidiary of Pfleiderer GmbH.
