Manufacturer Background:
Curver Benelux BV, a well-known name in the world of plastic household products, originated in the Netherlands. Founded in 1949 as a small family business, Curver quickly became a pioneer in using plastics for everyday items, selling products throughout Europe and beyond.

The story began when brothers-in-law Pierre Curtius and Ad Verschuren produced glass tubing for the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries in Tilburg, combining their names to create “Curver.” Three years later, the company moved to Rijen. From 1954, Curver began producing plastic caps for their glass tubes, setting trends at a time when many companies were still skeptical about plastics. By 2015, Curver was part of Europe’s largest manufacturer of plastic products.
