Founded
in 1996.
Strategic location in the Czech Republic with easy access to EU markets.
Production capacity of approximately 20,000 standard hours per month.
International cooperation – approximately 80% of our production is exported to Austria, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden.
Family-owned engineering company.
5 business areas: Metal Fabrication, Machining, Surface Treatment Centre, Assembly, and Design & Engineering.
Annual investments in innovation and technology.
We continuously optimize our production through process digitalization, cooperate with leading suppliers of machinery and tooling, and leverage their technical expertise to increase productivity. Our goal is to deliver on time, at the required quality, and with minimum costs – without compromising precision or reliability. With a monthly capacity of around 20,000 standard hours and consistent business growth, we are able to respond flexibly to customer needs across a wide range of industries.
We are committed to sustainability and an environmentally responsible approach – we sort waste and continuously continuously expand the capacity of our photovoltaic system, which now covers most of the roofs of our production facilities of our production halls.
At the same time, we remain continuously focused on improving our quality management system.
We are certified according to EN ISO 9001, EN ISO 3834-2, EN 15085-2 CL1 and DIN 2303 Q2, confirming our expertise and commitment to the highest quality standards.
We are a team of more than 160 skilled professionals who are passionate about their work and committed to continuous improvement. Our company culture is built on fairness, teamwork, and a healthy competitive spirit.
We see every employee as a key part of our company. We value their ideas, support their professional growth, and provide the security of stable employment. Our doors are always open—our management team is approachable, listens to employees, and has a deep understanding of the industry.
We continuously invest in the technological development of our company and the automation of production. In 2026, we expanded our production capacity by constructing a new production hall covering 4,400 m².
Our goal is to strengthen our capabilities in machining high-strength and special steels, expand our engineering and design services, and develop our own value-added products.
We strive to become the first choice for customers seeking a partner that delivers quality, reliability, and technological excellence – all under one roof.
Our partners are primarily engineering and industrial companies that value reliability and quality. We help them save time, reduce costs, and simplify the entire process by providing complete solutions from design to delivery of the finished product. Thanks to our long-term cooperation with customers in the rail vehicle, defence, material handling, food processing, pharmaceutical, machinery manufacturing, and energy sectors, we have established ourselves as a reliable European supplier. Our goal is not one-off projects, but long-term partnerships built on trust, quality, and stability.
We are proud to operate in the heart of Moravia – in Březnice and Provodov, where many of our employees also come from. We support engineering students, offer internships, provide scholarships, and collaborate with universities, for example on the Kostka – Mission to Space project.
At the same time, we actively participate in regional cultural and sporting activities, support local community events, and proudly sponsor the Berani Zlín ice hockey club.
