COSCOLLOLA Comercial SL has been successfully selling prod- ucts bearing the KraussMaffei and KraussMaffei Berstorff brands on the Spanish market for fifty years. The third-generation family-run company is therefore the agency with which KraussMaffei has cooperated for the longest period of time. "We are delighted with this long-standing partnership, which is entirely in the interest of our continuous development", said Frank Peters, Vice President Sales at KraussMaffei. "Together we have built up a strong and successful market position in Spain. I am firmly convinced that we will also remain strong in future and will increase our market shares." The success story started in September 1962 when Coscollola (Barcelona) became the KraussMaffei agency for injection molding machinery in Spain. This cooperation led to the delivery of the first injection molding machine in January 1963. The machine model at that time was still the MONOmat 150S (manufacturer: Eckert&Ziegler). However, the first KraussMaffei VI10- 700 injection molding machine came to Spain as early as 1964. In 1966 turnover already exceeded DM 1 million, a respectable result in the then still young plastics industry, not least because Spain, before its accession to the EU in 1986, levied a 45% import tax on plastics machines.
