In 1977 the company "Schneider Silikonpapiere" was founded and transformed in 1983 into "Schneider GmbH", having its headquarters at Albershausen, a small town about 40 km from Stuttgart in the Southwest of Germany. The former core business, the production and processing of siliconised special papers, has been expanded continually by the integration of other companies and the development of innovative new products.

The company Schneider GmbH has proved to be a competent high-performance and quality-conscious manufacturer, supplier and partner in all product segments. When the company was founded in 1977 by Helga and Hans Schneider, the range of products was limited to a small specialised selection of products for the bakery sector.

From the beginning the focus was on baking release paper, siliconised on both sides. It was produced in a previously unknown top quality and introduced at first on the German market. Thanks to long-term entrepreneurial vision and foresight the core business has been continuously extended to pastry bags and a great variety of small equipment made of metal and plastic. At present, the portfolio comprises more than 4,500 items.
