1935
In the centre of Turnhout (province of Antwerp - Belgium) we started our paper converting activities.
At first the exercise books were machine ruled but finished by hand.
Yearly paper consumption was: 500 tons.
1960
The company moved to the industrial estate of Beerse some 10 km away from Turnhout and very near to the E34-motorway.
The area of the first new building was then about: 5,000 m²
2005
The company continues to grow and the buildings now have an area of 35,000 m².
Every year Aurora converts 14,000 tons of paper.
Nearly all our products are now made on fully automatic machines.
Aurora offers a very extensive range of stationery and has grown to become the most important manufacturer in the Benelux-region.
In addition we have been able to build an extensive worldwide export trade.
2007
New warehouse for raw materials was completed bringing the total covered space for production, stock and logistics to over 430,000 sq.ft.
2008
The commercial and logistic activities of all group members are integrated. Aurora now has one Distribution Centre for all deliveries.
