|
1955: founding of Becromal by E. Ch. Rosenthal. The first electrochemical etchings are made. |
|
1966: building of the Rozzano production site and headquarters. |
|
1969: Becromal produces the first high voltage foils with the know-how support of Siemens. |
|
1986: E. Ch. Rosenthal dies. His son, Harry Pierre, becomes President of Becromal. |
|
1988: establishment of Becromal of America in, Clinton/Tennessee. |
|

|
- |
Milano: 6 new etching machines for the newly developed MV and HV foils. |
- |
USA: updating of existing forming machines, increase of forming capability by 60 %. |
- |
Norway: new building enables the doubling of the forming capability. |
|
|
2006: implementation of the new High Voltage Etching technology (pilot plant in Milano). |
