COLOP Digital

COLOP Digital GmbH is an Austrian company specializing in mobile printing, marking, and authentication solutions for documents and products. Founded in September 2018 by entrepreneur Alex Breton and COLOP Produktionsholding GmbH, led at that time by Ernst Faber, Franz Ratzenberger and Gerhard Koschka. Since 2021, COLOP Digital and its mother company are managed by Christoph Skopek and Franz Ratzenberger.

 The company introduced its inaugural product, the COLOP e-mark device and its corresponding control applications, in 2019. This device represents a significant advancement in the desktop-mobile printing sector and can act as a digital stamp, as a marking device or as a mobile printer. The company has filed and acquired several patents since its inception. 

COLOP Digital aims to establish itself as a global leader in mobile printing, marking, and authentication solutions. Traditional desktop printing technologies often face limitations due to their reliance on hardware, resulting in bulkiness, complexity, and compatibility issues with various formats. In response, COLOP Digital has shifted towards more software-based solutions, providing enhanced portability, wireless functionality, simplicity, and versatility in its offerings.

Mother company 

Both COLOP Digital GmbH and COLOP Produktionsholding GmbH operate under the umbrella of COLOP Stempelerzeugung Skopek GmbH & Co. KG, a company founded in 1980 by Karl Skopek.
