The Manager ofr WILLBRANDT Gummiteknik in 1994 was Aage Christensen, with years of experience as Danish sales responsible for Continental Contitech’s industry range such as” SchwingMetall”, was well suited to get to know WILLBRANDT “from the inside”.

Willbrandt moved to new premises with warehouse suited for stocking and logistics in Haslev; “Erhvervshuset Grobund”.
Due to the heavy expansion the company was converted from a PLC to LTD setup in 2015 after a buyup of the company Vibtex in 2014.The following years the company kept expanding, making it clear that the location is no longer suited for the desired continued expansion. In 2016 the lot “Grønlandsgade 9” is acquired and the plan is to build a new domicile with room for continued expansion.
