The manufacture of the vast range of wood working presses with the name KOLMAG, was started in 1960. These presses were sold both in Italy and throughout the world. Always at the forefront when it comes to the production and design of new work processes, Kolmag was one of the first companies to produce woodworking presses and continuous cycle machines.
Over the last thirty years, in order to satisfy the changing requirements of the clientele, the company concentrated its efforts on the production of membrane presses and it was the first in the world to have devised and placed on the market a specific type of membrane press used mainly for covering shaped panels. As well as producing machines it also carried out an in-depth examination of all the technology of the materials used and the gluing processes which are of paramount importance for the quality of the product so that it can offer the client advice not only with regards to the specific machine but also the entire production process.
In the 1970’s in addition to the production of presses, the company began to design, produce and sell vacuum dryers for wood which it exports all over the world under the “Cigomak” name.
The marks Kolmag and Cigomak are now been absorbed by group SAOM,company that produces work centers numerically controlled for working with wood for over 30 years.
The production of the mark Kolmag and Cigomak was transferred SAOM in factories located in Legnaro (Padova) and Costa di Rovigo (RO).
