In 1997 Westland Gummiwerke GmbH & Co. KG, a world leading German company for graphic rollers, invested its capital into LIGUM and the latter company received the necessary know-how and high-tech materials for offset printing. In the same year, the first “sleeve”, an elastomer covered fiberglass for flexography printing, was produced. At present, flexography printing forms are the main specialization with great growth potential for the plant in Jablonec nad Nisou / CZE and Kenosha / USA. However, the same attention is paid to other specializations as well, which are of the same importance for our company – printing industry, packaging industry, metallurgy, wood industry, engineering, etc.

LIGUM Company expanded internationally establishing affiliated companies in Poprad / SVK, Glogow / POL, Lutck / UKR, Moscow / RUS, Kenosha / USA, Istanbul / TUR and Taicang / CHN – this is company LIGUM nowadays.

Customer satisfaction in our field of business firstly requires the optimal choice of materials for coverings and, of course, high-quality production with short delivery times. This requires an understanding of the whole range of technologies where our coverings are used. The constant improvement and development of suitable solutions together with material suppliers, designers and engineers is our challenge.

Thousands of satisfied local as well as foreign customers, including world leading companies in the printing, packaging and engineering industries, prove that investing in quality and technology in favor of the customer has paid off.
