Our history begins in 1912. In that year, Mr. H.J.A. Moorman registered his Book and Paper Trade with the Amsterdam Trade Register. He settled in the Jordaan, where the foundations were laid for the company known today as Moorman Karton.
Originally his trade consisted of daily newspapers, paper for home use, packaging paper for merchants and cardboard for bookbinding and cardboard companies. Artists requested a special cardboard for their frames - so matboard became a leading product within Moorman.
In 1970 Moorman Karton moved from Amsterdam to Weesp, where 11,000 m² of office and production space has been in use ever since. In addition, Moorman Karton has a warehouse of approximately 9,000 m² in Winschoten, Groningen.
On August 24, 2012, Her Majesty the Queen granted Moorman Karton Weesp B.V., the predicate Royal. The official name of the company since that date is therefore Koninklijke Moorman Karton Weesp B.V. In everyday life we keep it short as 'Moorman' or 'Moorman Karton'.
In over a century Moorman has grown from a local one-man business to an internationally operating company, with almost half of its sales now realized outside the Netherlands. In our own country we have for many years been a leading wholesaler of cardboard, paper and additional products. Customers in the rest of Europe and far beyond also rely on our high-quality semi-finished products, such as foamboard for bookbinders, exclusive matboard, acid-free museumboard and self-adhesive specialties.
Cardboard is an environmentally friendly product that mainly consists of recycled paper and is fully recyclable. Since 2009, Moorman Karton has been FSC® and PEFC certified for both production and trade. These internationally recognized labels, supported by governments, businesses and environmental organizations, guarantee that our products come from sustainably managed forests. Thus, we contribute to a responsible and future-proof paper and cardboard industry.
