The company
We are customer-centric. We strive to ensure that our work is of the highest possible quality, delivered on time and meets customer requirements in every respect.
We started in 1997 as a family business with 3 people in a 200 m² workshop in Verpelét. Today 50 employees produce in 3 shifts on our own 27,000 m² site – covering the whole process for our partners, from raw material sourcing to delivery of the finished product.
