History
The company began as Topflight Tool Company, a precision machining facility manufacturing components for aircraft during World War II. Following the war, it shifted focus to printing presses dedicated to labeling applications. During the 1950s and 1960s, Topflight entered the pressure-sensitive label industry and engineered its own proprietary printing presses. Over time, its product portfolio grew to incorporate shrink film, tamper-evident labels, and conductive printing technologies. In 1998, the corporate headquarters were moved to Glen Rock, Pennsylvania.
Sister companies
In 1961, Topflight established Adhesives Research to create specialized adhesive products. Later, in 1979, it launched Conductive Technologies to meet technical demands related to membrane switches and biosensor applications. Although both entities now function independently, they continue to maintain cooperative relationships with Topflight.
