THE ALPEN STORY - a brief version!
Alpen Products Pty Ltd sold its first toothpick in 1967. Since then, our product range has expanded and evolved dramatically in line with the trends of the Party & Catering industries.
Alpen is a leading manufacturer and importer of party and catering accessory products in Australia and have been supplying and supporting our industries for over 40 years. It all started just after WWII when Alpen's founder Mr Jack Byrne started selling toothpicks door to door on his return from fighting in New Guinea in the mid 1940's. From these humble beginnings and the family's hard work, Alpen continued to grow involving members of the Byrne family and headed by Greg & Ros Byrne (Jacks' son and daughter-in-law).
Over the years, Alpen has developed a group of well know household brands, which are all now familiar within the party and catering marketplace. These include 'Parties for Everyone', 'Decrotex', 'Catering Collection' & 'Gala' Crepe Paper, to mention a few.
Along with our own brands we proudly represent many international brands and their products here in Australia. These include Sempertex Latex Balloons, 'Balloon Time' helium balloon kits, 'Duni' superior quality table top accessories, 'The Expressions Factory' badges & banners, 'Kaleidoscope', Betallic & CTI Foil Balloons. We are a well known Australian representative of overseas companies due to our wide distribution within the Australian market, quality products and well established foundations.
We pride ourselves on providing premium quality products. Our broad and diverse range has been developed to help you decorate and cater for your function or celebration. Our specialty is colour co-ordination and we want to inspire you to create atmosphere!
