GALVANIC SURFACE TREATMENT
History of cooperative KOVEX unfolds since 1963 when in Plavecký Štvrtok was established plant for the manufacture of luggage and footwear fittings in cooperative KOŽATEX Bratislava. The plant in Plavecký Štvrtok produced luggage and footwear fittings for the needs of cooperative in 1/3 but also for businesses in former Czechoslovakia and for export abroad.
Under the impact of political changes, the plant became independent and on 30th March 1990 was established a separate cooperative called KOVEX. In 1991 due to changes in the market the cooperative was not able to provide work for 250 employees. In November 1991 it solved its economic situation by selling part of the property to its employees, the cooperative was determined to extinction. Group of 10 employees felt like to continue the tradition of cooperative and over time through its effort managed to revive its activities.
