Sheeting Services

1936: Where It All Began

Our journey started in 1936 with the development of Cogepa’s first “sheeter” – a machine that converted paper rolls into reams. Though primitive compared to today’s technology, this innovative step launched what would become decades of expertise in paper converting services.

What started as a simple idea has grown into the comprehensive converting solutions we offer today at our Antwerp facility

The Sixties: Expanding Our Horizons

The 1960s marked a pivotal moment in Cogepa’s evolution when we acquired our first Jagenberg sheeter. This significant investment allowed us to expand beyond our own production needs and begin offering professional sheeting services to third-party clients – a decision that would shape our business model for decades to come.
