History

Our experience with the production of labelling machines goes back a long way. The first machines were launched in 1959. At that time the focus was on the Swiss market and the strategy was called “Swiss quality for the Swiss market”. The market developed quickly. The spread of product labelling and the later introduction of barcodes increased the need for labelling solutions. Demand developed in all industries, but demanded different solutions. Collamat has been able to develop such solutions, and even today, many industries are still buying their labelling solutions from us.
