1947 We started as a dairy station for purchasing and processing of milk named Mleko Sežana.

1954 First glue was developed on the basis of casein derived from the surplus milk.

1962 There was 1700-litre reactor for the production of synthetic adhesives installed. This decision was crucial for the further development of MITOL.

1963 First types of dispersion adhesives were introduced. Emulsions for their production were supplied by the local producers and from abroad.

1964 Dairy was renamed into MITOL – Mlekarna in tovarna lepil.

1968 Increasing demand for dispersion adhesives and troubles with importing emulsions lead to decision to start our own production of emulsions.

1972 The quatities of milk to be purchased diminished from year to year, dairy capacities, on the other hand, remained unexploited. It was not surprisingly that this year brought about final elimination of the dairy-processing activity.

1973 In that year 5 000 tons of emulsions were produced.

1975 The development of new technologies and new customers' needs required the development of new types of adhesives. MITOL very soon recognised the advantages of hot melt adhesives and was capable to predict the growing demand for this kind of glue. MITOL was the first who started the production of hot melt adhesives and who introduced the new generation of adhesives on Yugoslav market.

1989 By changing the company’s name to MITOL tovarna, p.o Sežana the primary activity was removed from the company’s title.

1991 After the loss of ex-Yugoslav markets MITOL has focused all its efforts on searching business opportunities on the new markets.

1995 The company is reorganised in joint-stock company and it is registered as MITOL, tovarna lepil, d.d., Sežana.

1999 In that year ISO 9001 and ISO 14 001 were obtained. This step ranks MITOL among the companies which besides concerning about the produtcs' quality, put also much effort in environmentally friendly and safe production.

2002 CIM – computer integrated manufacturing was introduced in the production of
emulsions.

2002/2003 By constructing a high racking storage facility MITOL has got a modern
Distribution –Logistic Centre.

2004 Modernization and partial automation in production of hot melt adhesives.

2004 MITOL has established its first company MITOL CZ in Czech Republic.

2006 Attaining OHSAS 18001:1999 certification represents formal confirmation of MITOL's efforts for occupational health and safety.

2008 MITOL's activities in the field of environmental protection were upgraded by the IPPC environmental licence in 2008. By this key document, MITOL has made a legal commitment to an integral resolution of environmental issues, to prevent pollution and to reduce the impacts on the environment by introducing advanced technologies. By this, MITOL has provided conditions for sustainable development of the company itself as well as the entire community.
