From humble beginnings in 1957, Vintex is synonymous with consistent product quality, highly responsive service and product innovation. These attributes were established long ago and have been constantly refined over its history.

Originally founded as Zelco Rubber & Plastics as a knife-over-roll coater located in Montreal, the company moved to Candiac, Quebec and purchased the company's first extrusion coating line in 1967. 

In 1971, then known as National Vintex, the company purchased of a new foam coating line and added new urethane and vinyl formulation capabilities. Five years later National Vintex left the province of Quebec and became Vintex Inc., settling into a new home on Royce Avenue in Brampton, Ontario.

In the early eighties as growth continued, Vintex required more space and moved to Gana Court in Mississauga, Ontario. Here, a second extrusion line was added along with automated compounding capabilities.

Once again Vintex outgrew its facility and in 1995 purchased its current 157,000 square foot facility in Mount Forest, Ontario. Vintex entered the new millennium a diverse, vertically-integrated company with a multi-decade track record of great products and services supported by the best team in the industry. This record of performance was recognized when Vintex was named as one of Canada’s 50 Best Private Managed Companies in 1999, 2000 and 2001 by the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Arthur Anderson and The National Post. 

Through-out our history product innovation and customer solutions have remained our focus. Ongoing investments in our Research & Development team and capital equipment have enabled new polymer capabilities including Santoprene, TPO and TPU, as well as new process capabilities such as perforation and printing.

Tomorrow, these capabilities will be further expanded to continue to create success for our customers in an increasingly global environment.
