Motex started in 1975 as a company called 'Youngbin Light'. In 1976, Motex introduced the innovative product 'Tape Typewriter'. This product was the first of its kind in Korea and the fourth in the world, shocking many people.
The 'Tape Typewriter' was a machine that allowed users to insert tape, adjust the dial, and press a button to print desired letters and colors. At that time, Korea's chemical industry was weak, so launching such an innovative product was a significant challenge and quite unusual globally. Thanks to its ability to engrave letters directly onto the tape, many people found it useful for both work and home, symbolizing the technological prowess and innovation of the time.
Motex's 'Tape Typewriter' demonstrated a technological achievement that surpassed the industrial level of Korea at the time, leading to the popularity of labeling and embossing products. This allowed Motex to grow into a brand that gained attention not only in the domestic market but also in international markets.
This product was a machine that made it easy to create labels by hand, allowing people to easily produce embossing labels. In Korea, products imported since the 1970s began to be sold, often advertised in boys' magazines or science magazines, making it a nostalgic item. It was frequently used in schools, military bases, and offices, proving useful for labeling items or indicating important information.
The Motex Embossing Label Maker featured an intuitive rotary dial system that made it easy to manipulate letters and numbers.
