American Gasket Technologies Inc (AGT) was established in the mid-1980's under the name of RichCor Gasket. It was a small two- person operation that began manufacturing in a small 3,000 ft. manufacturing facility on the North side of Chicago. Although the company enjoyed little financial success at the outset, it developed a strong reputation in the Chicagoland area as a premiere die cutting house.
After moving to a 36,000 ft building in Melrose Park, IL in the early 1980's, RichCor expanded their manufacturing capabilities to include slitting, laminating and rotary die cutting. With business continually growing in the early 1990's, RichCor changed its name to American Gasket Technologies. Around the same time, AGT added a Point of Purchase (POP) division that, for the most part, served the display strip and hang tab market. Since then, our POP division has expanded and become one of the largest POP display and fixture manufacturers in the world.
