Cool Timeline
1982
Alchimica is founded in an old rice mill located in Athens. Mr. Krimizis creates HYGRODESMO, an acrylic based waterproofing product that is easy to apply. Although the idea is relatively new, even for European standards at the time, the competition responds and quickly begins to develop similar products. With this industrial disruption, Mr. Krimizis recognises the need to create an unique and innovative product with unparalleled properties, so that his newfound company may succeed the growing competition.
