1956 – Founding<\/h2>

In 1956, Angelo Bombana founded Tenax in Sant’Ambrogio di Valpolicella (Verona) with the idea of producing mastic for the local market. The story of the company’s rise began in the 1960s when they started combining marble abrasives with mastic to enhance production, making Tenax a strategic partner for major companies in the industry.<\/p>\n<\/div> <\/div>\n

2000 – The Quarzo and Ceramica business lines<\/h2>

During the early 2000s, Tenax products were considered essential and dependable for global professionals who processed stone at an industrial scale. To offer an increasingly specific service, Tenax Quarzo and Tenax Ceramica were established, offering products dedicated to these materials.<\/p>\n<\/div> <\/div>\n

2023 – Hey it’s us, the new Tenax identity<\/h2>

Tenax has always been focused on evolving and presented a strategy for innovation to remain an ideal partner in surface processing. The company has a new visual identity while remaining true to its long-standing values, and a stronger positioning thanks to the increase in stakeholding in the American Joint-Venture Weha USA to 100% and the acquisition of the Italian TMP and Nest: a merger<\/span> that looks at development in terms of R&D, production capacity and market presence<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div> <\/div>\n

The sector continually evolves and needs players who can adapt to change. At Tenax, we are excited to take on new projects and challenges, viewing them as opportunities to add new elements to the brand’s story.<\/p>\n<\/div> <\/div>\n
