In 1893 our business started with cardboard packaging. Later came garlands, round boxes; corrugated cardboard and finally paper cores.

This was the twenties and Alois Paul from Eulau, Sudetenland, founder of our business, was successful. In the thirties he and his son in law, Karl Kunert, founded another production plant in Bodenbach on the Elbe river. Come 1945 employees totaled 250.

After being displaced from the Sudetenland in the late 40s, the brothers Kunert, Alois Paul's grand-children, started business again at Wildflecken/ Rhon, producing paper cores with business growing rapidly.

Business continually expanded and new production plants were created: 1970 Peiting/Bavaria, 1980 Soest/ Westphalia and 1990 Wedderstedt/ Saxony-Anhalt. 1991 the core plant at Rupperswil/Switzerland, 1993 Paul & co. Breitenau/Austria and Beillard, France.

In 1998 the first production in Asia began operation in Jakarta, Indonesia.
