The History of Colpitt

Colpitt has a 50-year history of plastic welding machine manufacturing. In 1946 the local blacksmith of Zandvoort (Holland) started to experiment with PVC/TC welding, using a modified 'wireless'.

The craftsman’s natural curiosity pushed the company through a variety of products: Albums, Automotive Components, Body Bags, Door Panels, Tents, Packaging, Video Cassette Cases, Wallets, etc.

Starting in early 1960, Colpitt cooperated with the Dutch Red Cross [N.P.B.I.] in the development of machines capable of manufacturing flexible plastic blood bags.

Since that time the supply of machines for medical purposes has assumed a major role in our operations.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This has yielded a company that harnesses the latest developments in welding/sealing technology and automation. This includes the design and manufacturing of machines for the production of medical disposable bags and other medical disposables.
