50 years of history

Founded on June 4, 1972. We are a company with customized solutions to increase productivity and safety in the water, in the countryside and in the city.

1967 - 1974

Gonzalo Mazuera works at Enka in Colombia where he carries out his professional career and acquires multiple knowledge, managing to occupy the position of Sales Director for Latam in the Industrial Fibers segment.

1972

Gonzalo Mazuera and his wife Maria Elena Posada found Indumar Ltda. Gonzalo, inspired by his learning during business trips in Latin America and driven by Enka's support as the main strategic ally and supplier of raw materials (high-tenacity nylon), begins his project in a house in Barrio Colombia in Medellín, with 5 collaborators, 2 filling machines and 1 sorting machine

1974- 1975

We purchased a flat loom and 2 twisters used at this time for the manufacture of tarpaulins for tires and we started manufacturing nets for fishing manually.

1983

We purchased the first Japanese Tanimura machine for weaving single-knot nets

1987-1988

We ventured into the manufacture of colored nylon yarns for Blue Jeans, a trend that generated good sales but remained in the market for a short period.

1989

After the drop in sales as the fashion for colored yarns for Blue Jeans went out of fashion, we decided to strategically focus on manufacturing products for fishing.

1993

Juan Carlos Posada, agronomist from the Zamorano Pan-American Agricultural School in Honduras, joins Indumar to work. Thanks to their knowledge, we began to study new uses and markets for our products.

1995-1996

We decided to build our own warehouse where we currently operate, in the La Tablaza neighborhood, in the municipality of La Estrella, Antioquia.

1998

A severe crisis is hitting us because of The Child Phenomenon, causing drought in the region and little fishing, but thanks to the combined efforts of collaborators and shareholders, we managed to recover and emerge stronger.

1999

Thanks to our innovative and persevering spirit, we developed and began the commercialization of new products for the flower and palm grower market.

2002

Gonzalo Mazuera retires from management and Juan Carlos Posada is appointed

2004

With our products, we enter the children's sports and games market

2007

We arrived in new geographies by exporting to Brazil, an important area in the fishing industry thanks to the Amazon River

2018

We created the first development for the design and interior design market with meshes for architectural supports.

2022

We are 50 years old and now we have more than 200 employees. We began a process of renewing our infrastructure, technology, processes and created a new corporate image outlining the new marketing and commercial strategy that integrates all the segments to which our products are aimed at.
