Coast Controls was established by two brothers who came from a line of inventors, entrepreneurs and dreamers, William C. and Douglas G. Fife. Their father invented the first web guide in his garage no less! After learning the trade and many years of web guide experience, they opened a state-of-the-art facility in sunny Sarasota, Florida in 1992, where everything is designed, engineered, assembled, and tested onsite by a dedicated team of professionals. We strive to aid the converting industry with our top of the line technology in an everchanging world. Because of that, Coast Controls produces the ONLY web guiding equipment entirely powered by air. Using low-pressure air means no electricity, no electronics, no hydraulics. Which also makes them inherently explosion-proof. And it can operate with pinpoint accuracy! We stand by our All-Air Web Guiding equipment so strongly that we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee AND a 10-year warranty. But thats not all we offer. We also manufacture a line of electronic web guiding systems with a 3.5-inch LCD interface with superb reaction time, auto-correction, and a 1-year warranty. We believe in productivity. Therefore, we feel web guide systems should be efficient, cost-effective, easy, and safe to use, and simple to install. Coast Controls web guides have been adapted to various web processing lines; such as paper and plastic bag machines, envelope machines, multi-wall tubers, packing machines, printing presses, laminators, slitter machines, plastic film extruders, coating machines, and much more. They are also safe for food and pharmaceutical production. Customers constantly tell us that our machines are highly accurate, extremely durable, and fail-safe. We could not ask for better praise! Kyle Koontz has worked for Coast Controls since 2006 and has been the proud owner and President of Coast Controls since 2019.
