Pilkington’s new name is Flabeg

With the beginning of April, 2000, the module assembler Pilkington Solar International (PSI) will change its name into Flabeg Solar International. 

The Cologne-based BIPV specialist PSI was part of a management buy-out organized by five board members of the Pilkington group.

The new Flabeg Technical Glass and Mirror Holding will have 1,600 employees around the world. According to Erik Schaar-Gabriel, assistant to the CEO at PSI, nothing will change for customers, except the name.
