Service and Parts for Polar Paper Cutters since 1984

The POLAR wood-lamination producer started making paper cutters in 1946. Started as Adolf Mohr, Maschinenfabrik, Hofheim in 1920, they had become a leading maker of paper cutters, and by 1962, had sold their 10,000th paper cutter. Because the quality of POLAR paper cutters was becoming known, they sold 20,000 by 1967, 50,000 by 1979, and 100,000 by 1995. Today POLAR makes high-speed, computerized paper cutters from 25 inches to 65 inches wide.
