History

1960

Mr De Lange Sr. started processing plastics in a garage next to his house. The order to weld a PVC foil cover for a water tower marked the beginning of a great number of orders from around the country. In 1960 plans to expand were executed. This organization grew into a reputable company that bought and sold products at home and abroad. De Lange Sr. decided to establish a trading company to import and export. In the course of time this company became successful.

In 1988 the three sons founded De Lange Plastic Linings. De Lange focused on concrete and environmental protection, swimming pool, pond and hydraulic foil and various high quality plastics.
