OurStory

Founded in 1985 by Mr. Habibullah Khan Zakori, RUA Tesa Industries (Pvt.) Limited—later renamed Zakori Industries (Pvt.) Limited (ZIL) in 1991—has long been recognized as a pioneer in adhesive tape manufacturing in Pakistan. Driven by a vision to make Pakistan self-reliant in manufacturing, the Ex-Chairman acquired advanced German technology during his time in Germany, with the company initially focusing on the production of PVC electrical tapes.

Over the span of 39 years, ZIL has grown from a single revolutionary idea into one of the region’s most trusted adhesive brands. The transition from a single product category to a complete, diversified product line has propelled consistent growth, reflected in ZIL’s strong 60% value share in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and 35% national market share. These achievements underline ZIL’s unwavering commitment to innovation, product excellence, and market leadership.

ZIL’s commitment to quality and excellence has been further recognized through several major milestones. The company has been honored with the Brand of the Year Award for 2023–2025, solidifying its position as a leading name in Pakistan’s adhesive tape industry. ZIL has also expanded its presence with new outlets in Lahore and Karachi, enabling greater accessibility and service to customers across the country.

Furthermore, ZIL has been accredited with the City & Guilds Certification, an internationally recognized credential that reflects the company’s adherence to global standards in manufacturing. The company’s success over the past decade has been driven by Mr. Ayub Khan Zakori, who served as Director since 2001 and now leads as CEO.
