history
The history of Boskien dates back to the 19th century. Bostik Findley was founded in 2001 as a result of the merger of two of France's largest oil and gas companies, Totalfina and Elf Acquitain, as well as the merger of two of its adhesive companies, Bostik and Atofendeli.
Bostik has a long and rich history. Founded in 1889 in Chelsea, Massachusetts, as Boston Blacking Co., it began to operate a shoe business and shoe adhesives. It was taken over by USM (United Shoe Machinery) in 1929 and grew globally. Boston Blacking focused on footwear until the 50s of the 20th century, when the company began to expand and diversify globally.
In 1990, Bostik was acquired by Total, a French oil and gas company, which became a leader in the industry.
Atofenderi was formed in 1996 by the merger of three companies:
Ceca Adhesives: The adhesives division of Elf-Ato Chemie S.p.A., which is one of the leading adhesive companies in France (Sader and Quelyd), enjoys a high position in Europe and is constantly improving its position in the world.
Findley Adhesives:The Wisconsin Paste Company was purchased by Frank G. Findley, a manufacturer of wallpaper and billboard pastes. In 1917, it was renamed F.G. Findley CO., which has since changed its name to Findley Adhesives, became a world leader in the hygiene adhesives market.
Laporte Adhesives and Sealants: A leader in the UK and Ireland (under the brands Evo-Stik and Sovereig), with a rapidly growing market share in the Netherlands (Simson) and Germany (Hey'di).
On October 1, 2004, Bostik became the official brand name of the company.
