The World Counts on Vacuumatic
For over half a century the world has been enjoying the benefits of Vacuumatic’s pioneering paper counting technology.
We are global leaders in the production of state-ofthe- art paper counting, batch marking and tabbing equipment, from benchtop to flow-line units. Vacuumatic supplies the security and commercial print industries, paper mills and converters with highest quality products.
When you are working long term with the world’s central banks, security and commercial printers, government departments, pharmaceutical houses and paper mills there is no room for error and certainly no room for complacency.
Our machines are designed, developed and manufactured in-house, in the UK, for distribution worldwide from our Colchester HQ, via Vacuumatic companies in the US and Germany and through our comprehensive global network of professional distributors.

Vacuumatic has built its name around quality, accuracy, efficiency and reliability. But more than that, we back up our mission statement to supply the world with pioneering, robust and competitively priced counting technology with the added value of unrivalled after sales service and spare parts support.
