# 70 Years of American® Tape

![70 Years of American Tape](https://blog.itape.com/hubfs/Blog-Header-American-70Years.webp)

 Jul 28, 2023 · 1 min read

## History of American Tape Company

**In 1953**, American Tape company was founded by Chris Kurzweil, Sr. located in Port Huron, MI. He had the vision of serving the pressure-sensitive tape market. The young company initially provided masking tapes to the automotive industry in the Midwest, much of it being in the Detroit area which was about an hour from the plant. Business grew in the first decade, so in 1963 the company moved south to its current location in Marysville, MI.

**In 1955**, the company was purchased by Armour & Company which provided substantial investments in equipment and capital, plus expanded markets to sell products.

**In 1969**, Greyhound acquired Armour, reorganized the tape division, and sold it to Akzona.

**In 1971**, Akzona decided the company would be named Armak Company - Tape Division. There were further financial and machinery investments and sales climbed. By this time, the company was acknowledged as one of the leading pressure-sensitive tape producers in the United States.

**In 1983**, a group of private investors purchased the company and restored the American Tape name.

**In 1990**, Seoul Trading Company (STC) acquired the company, but the American Tape name was retained.

**In 1997**, American Tape was purchased by Intertape Polymer Group (IPG) with the American Tape brand remaining for the automotive masking tape line.
