ABOUT US

INTRODUCTION

In 2002, after four years managing a large coating workshop in the haberdashery industry, Antonio Pozo, a master craftsman vehicle painter and technician, founded APO for the coating of small parts and in 2005 made it into a limited company.

Since then, the team at APO GmbH Massenkleinteilbeschichtung has been enhancing the surfaces of small components and objects for almost all industrial sectors. With our modern machinery and automated processes, we already achieve a capacity of almost one billion coated components per year – and remain open to new innovations.
