Eurotab coffee tablet technology

The concept of roast and ground coffee was successfully developed, first in France then in the US with equipment sales for industrial production.

FOUNDATION OF THE EUROTAB GROUP

It incorporates Linossier private label tablet production and Linotech. A few years later, the Innovation division was started to develop the tablet format for new applications.

Creation of Eurotab Technologies

The press manufacturer EUROTAB TECHNOLOGIES (originally named Linotech) was founded in order to design and assemble specific equipment for large tablet production. The first three-layer press specially designed for dishwashing tablets and the first rotary press for chlorine pool tablets were marketed.

J. Bonals was relocated

The growth of the company required its relocation in Cornellà de Llobregat where it is still located today between the city and the airport, leaving the historical premises of Barcelona district of Gràcia.

How Linossier expanded

The 1980s witnessed the beginning of tablet industrial manufacturing with two revolutions taking place in households:

    • Bleach tablets
    • Dishwasher tablets

Linossier (EUROTAB OPERATIONS today) was the first to develop these products and the tablets were very quickly adopted by the general public.

At that time, tablet presses were derived from pharmaceutical equipment not adapted to this type of production.

The Jean Linossier company was founded

The company manufactured soap and sawdust-based tablets for use in mechanical engineering workshops in the Saint-Étienne Region in France.

J. Bonals won an award

J. Bonals company was awarded the honor diploma and gold medal at the Universal exposition, held in Barcelona in 1929 and initiated its expansion to international markets at that time.

J.Bonals was created

The J.Bonals company was founded by Don Jaume Bonals Escayola in Barcelona, Spain and was managed by 4 generations of the Bonals family over a century until the takeover by Eurotab in 2016.
