About us - COLOP

The Spirit of Innovation

Global Player. COLOP is one of the world's leading manufacturers of modern stamps, with over 500 employees worldwide, 120 regular export markets and an export rate of more than 98 %. Continuous growth is firmly rooted in COLOP's corporate philosophy, which ensures that the globally increasing demand for high-quality European stamp products can continue to be met in future – it was for this reason that a major expansion of the production capacity at the parent plant in Wels, Austria, and also at the company's second production site in the Czech Republic, have been carried out in the last few years.

Innovation & Design. Since it was founded around 35 years ago, COLOP has been committed to product innovation in the field of state-of-the-art marking devices, particularly stamps. In 2008, for instance, the company introduced 'Green Stamps' into the stamp world. These stamps are made predominantly from recycled or renewable raw materials. Stamps with antibacterial protection are another of the company's significant innovations. Last but not least with the Printer the personalisation of stamps has become a trend.

Marking Solutions. The range of products comprises a large selection of stamp solutions for different applications, including office and pocket stamps, text and date stamps, rectangular and round stamps. COLOP also supplies all the products and systems necessary to ensure a high-quality stamp imprint. The range of services offered by COLOP is rounded off by e-business solutions for the creation of text plates and the sale of stamp products online, as well as software tools for the personalisation of ImageCards™. 

Quality & environmental management. COLOP's environmental management  system has been ISO 14001 certified for many years, which ensures that all processes have been optimised from an ecological perspective. The company has however  also had the conviction to make a voluntary, above-average contribution to  environmental issues, going above and beyond the strict EU and national regulations. COLOP has been ISO 9001 certified since 2001. This certification forms the basis for  a continual improvement process as part of the company's excellent internal quality management system.

High tech production. A modern and efficient production process is of great importance to COLOP, paying special attention to the energy resources required. Fully automated production and manufacturing of key product lines, ongoing modernisation and upgrading of machinery and constant process optimisations all ensure high quality products and an energy-efficient manufacturing process.
