Facts
Vlay is its own enterprise, which, with a team of 16 specialists, has proven itself with the processing of plastics and light alloys in the Austrian market. The history of the enterprise is impressive and exemplary for the time of its emergence and for the cultivated understanding for the material ACRYLIC GLASS and its processing in all conceivable variations.
The founder of the enterprise, Adolf Vlay, was born in Radkersburg in 1938. At the age of 22, the future company owner went abroad, and 14 years later Vlay Kunststoffverarbeitungs GmbH was founded in his homeland. The break-through came in 1978 with an innovative product: a lockable cassette stand. Thousands of these cases were sold to gas stations, record companies and similar businesses. During this period, large customers such as Assmann, SGP, Puch and Palmers were also acquired. The current managing director of the showcase of the manufactory, Helmut Rauch, joined the company in 1983. He was instrumental in the development and modernization of the machinery. Major investments were made in CNC machines, thus laying the foundation for another major division, the production of high-precision turned and milled parts for medical technology
