Strokartonfabriek is een vorm van massief karton, gemaakt uit strovezels die uit strohalmen zijn vrij gemaakt door inwerking van kalkmelk.
Grootste afzetgebied was Engeland. Na de oorlog liep dit sterk terug. De productie komt steeds meer onder druk te staan waarbij het imago verslechtert.
Grijskarton,massief karton op basis van oud papier,wint echter eigen terrein.Begin 1970 stopt de fabriek met strokarton en gaat geheel over op grijs karton.
De fabriek is in 1913 ontstaan en de in 1997 gesloten.
De locatie is maar op een manier binnen te komen. Iedere hal is maar via één ingang binnen te komen. Wij vonden het een erg mooie locatie en zeer geschikt voor foto's te maken.

This place is huge! I can't believe there are still locations that are this big in the netherlands, especially with how old this factory is. I visited this location with a friend who has never explored before and I was equally in shock with the size of it.
The buildings were mostly empty, but there were still some old machines we found. We also found some documents of the employees dating back to 1980, so this factory is at least 40 years old (probably a lot older). Due to how long it has been abandoned, a lot of rooms and halls were reclaimed by nature, which I absolutely love to see.
The first building we went to was separated from the other buildings, while the second building was connected to the rest of them. Watch out for the workers next to the factory, since they come by with the truck every now and then. However, I don't think they really care, because we were spotted and they ignored us.
