Cremalleras Rubi is one of the oldest companies engaged in the manufacture of zippers.[1]
History
The company was founded in 1926 in the town of Rubí (Barcelona), which still maintains its headquarters and single plant. In the thirties, the British company Imperial Metallurgic Industries (IMI) bought the company and, having no experience in the market of the zippers, partnered with one of the European leaders in the industry, the German manufacturer Opti.
The company remained in front of the European market until the late seventies. The Spanish subsidiary defaulted in 1981 and, four years later, bought their 256 employees making it a labor corporation (SAL). The company, which in 1996 regained name Cremalleras Rubi, is already a conventional corporation, but “in spirit” remains in the hands of its workers.
Present
Cremalleras Rubi have manufactured zip fasteners to the highest specification using advanced technologies which are environmentally friendly. Continuous research, development and in-house manufacture within our 16,000 m2 of company premises of all component parts have maintained a top quality product. Efficient order processing procedures guarantee a rapid and personalized handling of each and every order. Our quality control system complies with all international regulations including ISO 9001:2000, ISO/TS 16949, ISO 14001 and Öko-Tex Standard 100 for baby clothing.
