Family-run business Geostick was founded in Amsterdam in 1924 as a producer of enamel signs before expanding production in 1975 to self-adhesive labels, which have since became its core business.

Currently working from three production facilities in the Netherlands, the company is aiming to achieve 100 million EUR turnover by 2024. To help achieve this goal, Geostick has invested in a new digital label production facility in Uithoorn, where it will integrate the Lundberg Tech Central Matrix and Trim Extraction system.

Geostick ordered a comprehensive extraction system to convert waste by capturing trim and self-adhesive matrix, cut waste with special granulators, convey waste by air, collect and compact waste in a press container and return clean air into the production.
