'''INDUMIL''' (a [portmanteau](/source/portmanteau) of the [Spanish](/source/Spanish_language) words ''Industria'' ''Militar'', Military Industry) is a [Colombia](/source/Colombia)n-based military weapons manufacturer. The company is run by the [Colombian government](/source/Government_of_Colombia).

==History==
Indumil was originally known as National Workshop of Mechanic Crafts ({{langx|es|Taller Nacional de Artes Mecánicas}}). It was founded in 1908 as a dependency of the Ministry of War. The institution was renamed Indumil in 1954 as an autonomous organisation.

In 1954 Indumil's main facilities were opened. Its first factory, named General José María Córdova, was intended to produce small arms and ammunition. This facility is located in [Soacha](/source/Soacha), [Cundinamarca](/source/Cundinamarca_Department).
In 1955 a second facility was set up under the name of Santa Bárbara. This second unit makes heavy munitions and artillery equipment for Colombian military forces.

In 1964 an explosives factory under the name Antonio Ricaurte was inaugurated. In 1968 this facility became an integral part of Indumil. In 1975, documentation from Heckler & Koch mentioned that the company was allowed to produce the G3, MP5 and the HK21 under license.<ref name="Doc">{{cite web | url=https://www.bits.de/public/articles/kw_nl/kleinwaffen-nl08-07eng.htm | title=Una Historia de la Violencia - German Small Arms in Colombia }}</ref>

During the 1980s and 1990s the Colombian government started a commercial relationship with [Israeli Military Industries](/source/Israeli_Military_Industries). Through a staged process Indumil developed licensed production of [IMI Galil](/source/IMI_Galil) rifles for the use of the [Colombian military](/source/Colombian_military).

In 2000 Indumil was granted a certification [ISO 9002](/source/ISO_9002)/94. During the new millennium Indumil received a number of awards as a defense industry.<ref>[http://www.indumil.gov.co :: INDUMIL - Industria Militar<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
