We do everything ourselves, in-house, right here in North America. Our tools are designed,manufactured and assembled with pride under one roof. What does this mean to you? Thebest possible experience. The power of knowing that you are one call away from the entireoperation. One call away from getting what you need faster, more efficiently, and consis-tently. Our customers like the fact that we are a family business that has been building tap-ing tools for ever three decades. More importantly, our customers like the fact that we canrespond to their needs with better tools, and better support.

Since 1979 - Thirty year single ownership and focusUnlike our competitors, our company has not sold out, filed bankruptcy, or been purchasedmultiple times. Weve been fortunate. We owe our success to our customers. Over thirtyyears of focus and dedication - Since 1979.

Commitment to the success of othersOur balance sheet isnt the bottom line at Columbia. The success of our dealers and thosewho use our tools everyday is paramount. Your success is our mission.

North American versus Chinese manufacturingSure, the Chinese can make a tool look pretty good. But looks arent as important ascommercial grade quality. Underneath the polish and anodizing Chinese raw materials arestill being used. Cheaper materials lead to cheap products - products that do not standup to commercial punishment and abuse. Columbia uses the finest in commercial gradeUnited States steels, rubbers, plastics, and aluminum to ensure durability and longevityover time. Nobody beats our quality. Its done right - the Columbia way.

You cant beat us in our houseWe tool up, fabricate, design, engineer and assemble our tools in-house. This leads to thebest understanding of the tools and the ability to bring leading innovations to market fasterand most cost effective. Columbia is not a sales agency per-say, or a marketing companythat is telling you what you want to hear. We make our products with pride using the finestcomputerized maching centers in the world. It all happens here, in-house, in America.

Piorneering the five year warranty, then making it to the next levelColumbia was the first company to offer a five year warranty on our line of AutomaticTaping Tools. We have noticed that a couple competitors have jumped on thewarranty band wagon as a result. The difference between our five yearwarranty and theirs is... us. The fact that we are the only company in theworld that does everything in-house from start to finish puts us on entirelydifferent level. We arent going to argue with you when you have aproblem. We arent going to refer you to our fine print. Columbia willsupport you and your tools with an unpresidented level of customerservice no matter what the issue. We invented the five year warrantyand plan to back it.

For a little more than a year KHS&S hasbeen running Columbia Taping Tools on

our sites with really good success. It wasimmediately noticed by our tapers the qualityof Columbias products. They like the smoothcutting system on the taper and the cornerflushers are better than the tools we rented.Our guys really like the quick clean flat boxesfor cleanup and our down time is almost nonexistent except for minor maintenance issues!I would recommend Columbia Taping Toolsto any company doing production work!
