ABOUT US

PTE – Polymer-Technik Elbe GmbH

The company is proud to look back on more than 125 years in the rubber compounding industry. In the meantime Polymer-Technik Elbe GmbH has developed into one of the world’s leading manufacturers of rubber compounds.

The success story began in 1898 with the founding of Gummiwerk Elbe AG in Wittenberg. In 1972, the central mixing unit was constructed, the heart of today’s company.

Following this tradition Polymer-Technik Elbe GmbH began its business as a custom compounder on January 1st, 1993 and since then has continued doing so with determination and success.
