In 1951, Bob Tidland designed what would become the first air shaft on a cocktail napkin in Camas, Washington. More than 60 years later, we’ve strived to build durable products designed for easy use and engineered for reliable, long-lasting operation. This experience has led to the development of the industry’s most effective winding systems and slitting systems.
