SERINOX

What SERINOX does

SERINOX is a French industrial sheet metal fabrication company founded in 1957 and headquartered in Thiers, France, operating as a subsidiary of the TRA-C industrie group (formerly FLP Group). The company specializes in precision metalworking of stainless steel, steel, and aluminum, offering five core production capabilities: fine sheet metal work (laser cutting, stamping, bending, CNC machining), tube work (bending and shaping up to Ø100mm), certified mechanical welding (TIG/MIG/MAG with QS and QMOS qualified welders, plus robotic welding), surface finishing (polishing, pickling/passivation, anodizing, and other treatments), and mechanical/electronic integration/assembly. These capabilities are supported by an integrated design office running SolidWorks CAD with an 11-step design methodology, and a dedicated rapid-turnaround laser cutting service branded "Laser Flash" (24-hour quoting, 72-hour delivery).

SERINOX serves five primary verticals: railway equipment (the anchor segment, supplying interior refurbishment components and wagon equipment to leading OEMs under EN 15085 CL1), industrial OEMs (cyclones, silos, subassemblies), urban planning and street furniture (public and private markets), building equipment (international projects), and passenger transport (elevators, urban vehicles, aeronautics under EN 9100). GTM is enterprise field sales with dedicated project managers and a customer service team operating a quote-to-delivery model, supported by direct technical-sales engineering and multi-option logistics (including an Advanced Supplier Warehouse / MAF for vendor-managed inventory of kitted parts). The company maintains <300 ppm defect rate on 300,000 parts delivered annually.

The business model is custom B2B manufacturing with quote-based, project-specific pricing dependent on material, complexity, volume, and certification requirements. Revenue streams include project-based manufacturing, the Laser Flash rapid-cutting service, and integrated design-to-logistics services. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, EN ISO 3834-2, EN 15085 CL1, and EN 9100 certifications. SERINOX operates from a single 12,000 m² facility with 90-100+ employees and EUR 10 million in stated annual turnover.
