History
1934
It all started in 1934 when Leopold Aelvoet decided to start his own company for professional workwear.
1947
The small workshop that manufacture the first of the emblematic blue overalls was taken over in 1947 by son-in-law Gaston Siau. He expanded the company to a European workwear specialist. Aelvoet and Siau Confection thus became ALSICO.
1975
In the mid-1970s, Mr. Gaston Siau was the first to start production overseas.
1982
Thanks to the vision and tireless work of the third generation - Bernard and Philippe Siau - Alsico grew to become a global player.
2016
In 2016, with Vincent and Gauthier Siau, the fourth generation joined the ranks.
Today
Today, Alsico Group employs 7500 people and has consolidated sales of more than 250 million euros. With its 100 employees, Alsico nv, as the birthplace of the global group, still plays an important role in the continued development of the company.
