What EMT Púchov does

EMT Púchov s.r.o. (legal entity: EMT Púchov s.r.o., registered at OS Trenčín, District Court Trenčín, Section Sro, File 22440/R; Company ID 45 347 441) is a Slovakian industrial manufacturer of precision tire molds, established circa 1980 and operating for more than 40 years from a single headquarters and production facility at 1.Mája 4293, 020 01 Púchov, Slovakia. The company is a member of Continental Holding and positions itself as a tier-1 supplier of tire manufacturing equipment to the group's Passenger & Light Truck (PLT) and Commercial Vehicle / Truck & Bus (CVT) plants, while also serving external tire manufacturers across Europe (officially registered market: SVK). Headcount is in the 101–250 range.

The core production technology is direct engraving on CNC 5-axis milling centers, supplemented by EDM, wire-cutting, laser welding (ALM 200), vertical lathes, and combined milling/turning centers. The equipment base includes multiple DMU-series 5-axis mills (DMU 60P, DMU 65, DMU 85, DMU 125, DMU 160 FD), TOS Kurim KRA6, Chiron, and BOKO machines. CAD/CAM is delivered through a dedicated design team using Pro Engineering and hyperMILL, translating tire design specifications into production programs. Product scope covers CVT and PLT molds (directly milled and aluminum casted variants), agricultural tire molds, two-piece molds, fully customized CVT/PLT containers, and mold components (sidewalls, beadrings, clamping rings, treadshoes). Quality assurance is anchored on NIKON laser measurement, MITUTOYO CMM, ZETT MESS 3D measurement, and 3D scanning for reverse engineering. The company holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 certifications and has been twice recognized by Continental as Supplier of the Year (2011 and 2019).

The business model is B2B enterprise sales on a quote-based, custom-manufacturing basis, with primary revenue from one-time sale of tire molds and containers and secondary, recurring revenue from mold repair, modification, spare parts, CAD/CAM design services, and quality-assurance/measurement work. Go-to-market is direct sales into tire manufacturing plants with no third-party distributors or consumer channels. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is structured around the customized nature of each mold program, with sales largely internalized inside the Continental Holding network per the company's stated mission of 'full range support to PLT and CVT plants'.
