DateDescription
1975 ZOLTEK was founded in 1975 by Mr. Zsolt Rumy in St. Louis, Missouri.
1988 ZOLTEK enters the carbon fiber business with an acquisition in 1988, focusing on high-priced, low volume aerospace applications.
1992 ZOLTEK's initial public offering occurred in 1992. Our IPO raised $4 million, and we used most of that to build our first continuous carbonization line for the textile-type precursor.
1995 Using the proceeds of the secondary stock offering, ZOLTEK purchased Magyar Viscosa, a Hungarian producer of acrylic and other fibers for the European textile market, giving us further means to drive costs and price while ensuring a supply of raw materials to meet increasing demand.
1996 As ZOLTEK completed a secondary stock offering in 1996, we utilized the proceeds to finance an accelerated five-year strategic plan - ZOLTEK2000 - which included the installation of new continuous carbonization lines in Abilene, Texas and Hungary.
2004 Orders increased suddenly in 2004, and the demand for carbon fiber continued to increase.
2007 As the demand for commercial carbon fibers increased, ZOLTEK acquired a facility in Guadalajara, Mexico.
2014 In 2014, ZOLTEK was acquired by the Toray Group.
