Most camping gear is designed by people who have never depended on it. COLETTI is different. Founded in California in 2015 by veterans who knew what it meant to trust your equipment, COLETTI started with a simple conviction: if you would not want your family to eat or drink from it, do not build it. A decade later, COLETTI has ranked #67 on the Inc. Regionals 2026 list of America's fastest-growing companies - and has never used plastic, aluminum, or synthetic materials in its brew path.
Why Veterans Build Gear Differently
Military service teaches a specific relationship with equipment. Failure is not an inconvenience - it is the mission. That mindset shows up in every COLETTI product:
- 18/8 stainless steel only - the same grade used in surgical instruments and commercial kitchens. It does not leach, does not corrode, and does not need to be babied.
- Lifetime mentality - COLETTI gear is designed to outlast the trends, the season, and the trip. The Bozeman percolator comes with a 1-Year Warranty.
- No marketing over materials - COLETTI does not put a plastic basket in a stainless body and call it premium. Toxin-free means the whole product.
The 10% Commitment
Since its founding, COLETTI has donated 10% of profits to charitable causes that support freedom, military service, and religious liberty. This is not a campaign - it is a line item in how the company operates. The causes supported include organizations providing legal defense for service members, support for veterans transitioning to civilian life, and international religious freedom advocacy. When you buy a COLETTI percolator, pour over, or grinder, 10 cents of every dollar goes directly to these efforts.
