Our People

 

Our History

1984

Martin Wilheim founds PACOTHANE as a Division of Paper Corporation of United States, then a wholly owned Subsidiary of Unisource Corporation, a NY Stock Exchange listed company. PACOTHANE Release Film is invented and introduced into the market place and becomes the leading product of its type for multilayer PCB production. PACOTHANE Division pioneers the concept of "Just-In-Time" Delivery by appointing exclusive Stocking Distributors, each an industry leader, in almost every PCB producing market in the world. The new concept of offering custom-sized Sheets and Tooling is also introduced.

1988

PACOTHANE Division expands its Product Line Card to include PACOPADS (Pressure/Temperature Diffuser Pad), PRESSPROBE Pressure Testing Film, PACOTHANE "PLUS" Conformal Film, and PACO•VIA Laminating Film. Like PACOTHANE, these new products prove to be important, scrap-reducing, processing components to world-class, high technology, manufacturers of Printed Circuit Boards.

1994

Martin Wilheim acquires PACOTHANE'S joint-venture, manufacturing partner in order to vertically integrate the company. With this purchase, PACOTHANE controls it's own R&D Department and Manufacturing Facilities, over 100,000 sq. feet of space (> 9000 sq. meters), and offers Just-in-Time production, fabrication, warehousing and shipments to its worldwide customer base.

1999

Martin Wilheim purchases PACOTHANE Division from Unisource. He forms a new company now known as PACOTHANE TECHNOLOGIES, Division of Multilayer Worldwide Enterprises LLC, which retains the rights to the "PACO" name.  

2002

Pacothane Technologies' Manufacturing Facility, now a sister company, achieves registration to the ISO 9001:2000 Standard, ensuring continual improvement in our ability to serve our customers and to effectively respond to the changing marketplace, through the controlled development and manufacturing of our products from concept to finished product.
