About Hylas

Hylas is a family business, founded in 1978 by Mr Willemsen senior. From its humble beginnings as a sole proprietorship with limited stock, Hylas has right from the start focused on customisation. Hylas has always maintained a keen eye for detail and sets high demands on own production to enable a tailor-made response to a broad range of customer wishes.

Over the years, the company has grown steadily, developing into a modern business, supported by a large team of fixed employees. Thanks to many years of experience, an extensive machine park and a broad palette of hundreds of colours, a fitting answer can be found for practically any sunprotection requests.

The second generation has since taken over. Having grown up in the company, Pieter and Vincent Willemsen became the owners of Hylas in the 1990s. After more than 33 years of autonomy, Hylas BV has since March 2003 joined the CRH Group, an international partnership of companies in building materials.

High priority is given to sustainability. The residual flows are separated as best as possible and reused. All used materials can be recycled.

Hylas has deep roots in the sunprotection industry. While many decades of experience is a rich source of inspiration, innovation remains key. Hylas is therefore committed to continuous development, always looking for techniques with which things can be done differently, smarter and more efficiently.

Backed by the past but always looking to the future, that is how Hylas works.

Speed and maximum product availability are of central importance. With a range of more than 550 colours, the right tint is always available.

All other collections can generally be delivered, made-to-measure, within 14 days.
