History

The tesa plant in the Hausbruch district of Hamburg puts a complex coating unit with suspended drying for 1200 meters of adhesive tape strips into operation. Recovery and recycling of the solvents used in the unit enables highly efficient cleaning of exhaust air.

1979: tesa plant Hamburg puts a complex coating unit with suspended drying for 1200 meters of adhesive tape strips into operation.

In the late 1960s, the close proximity between marketing, research, and production grew in importance. A new production site close to the Hamburg headquarters was designed to ensure short development cycles. The cornerstone for the plant in Hamburg-Hausbruch was laid in 1971. Since then, the site has continually expanded and with its cleanroom unit and solvent-free production lines, it is one of the most modern in the world.

In 2015, a new polymerization facility was put into operation, allowing tesa more flexibility in the production of modern adhesives. In addition, a new production hall and a new hazardous goods warehouse were built, as well as a modern combined heat and power generation plant, which simultaneously generates warmth for heating and cooling for air-conditioning in addition to electricity.
