What Las-Pers does
Las-Pers BV is a Dutch industrial manufacturer of metal and composite gratings and stair treads, founded in 1970 and headquartered at Kanaalstraat 45, Oss, Netherlands. The company produces pressed gratings (Persroosters Types N, Z, C, K and their anti-slip variants NA, NAV, ZA, ZAV), laser-welded gratings, perforated gratings, louvered (CL) gratings, shelving gratings (SN, SP), fiberglass-reinforced plastic (GVK/GRP) gratings, and a broad stair-tread and ladder-rung range in steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and plastic. In-house surface treatment — hot-dip galvanizing, centrifugal galvanizing, powder coating, and duplex systems — is offered as an integrated finishing step, supporting a single-source value proposition. The firm also operates as the administrative and sales back office for Lichtgitter Belgium.
The company serves a horizontal mix of industrial, construction/architecture, infrastructure/transportation, logistics, and chemical/process customers across the Benelux and broader European market, with notable reference projects including NS railway stations, Philips Stadion Eindhoven, GaiaZOO, Cinemec, Hanze Hogeschool, Madurodam, Audi Karlsruhe, and KCA-Depot Hilversum. It is a privately held subsidiary of the Lichtgitter Group (founded 1929, 25+ partner companies worldwide) and operates with approximately 18 employees covering commercial, administrative, technical, and operational roles.
The business model is consultative, quote-based enterprise field sales: customers submit project specifications via online quote forms or direct contact, and proposals are returned within one working day for standard inquiries, with custom lead times of 2–4 weeks. Pricing is non-public and bespoke per project. Distribution runs through direct sales from Oss plus leverage of the Lichtgitter Group's global partner network for international reach. The company holds a dense stack of European certifications — EN 1090-1/-2/-3, EN 15085-2 (railway welding), DIN EN ISO 9001:2015, VCA/VVA, DASt 022, RAL GZ 638, NEN-ISO 1461, and NEN 5254 — which collectively gate access to public infrastructure and rail tenders and constitute a meaningful regulatory moat.
