Strojmetal Aluminium Forging

What Strojmetal Aluminium Forging does

Strojmetal Aluminium Forging a.s. is a Czech joint-stock company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the MTX Group industrial conglomerate since 2020, tracing its origins to 1824 and operating under a 200-year metalworking tradition. The company manufactures aluminum and specialized aluminum alloy forged chassis and suspension components for personal automobiles of leading global automotive brands, with stated annual production capacity of approximately 17 million units and exports to 14 countries. Its product range also includes custom industrial forged solutions tailored to customer specifications.

The business is built around an integrated, vertically-oriented manufacturing platform that runs from pre-development and product design through in-house CNC tool and die manufacturing, automated forging across 10 robotized forging lines, precision machining on automated machining centers, fully automatic assembly of damping elements, and comprehensive quality diagnostics including static and dynamic mechanical testing, metallography, corrosion testing, and surface analysis. The footprint spans three facilities: Kamenice (Czech Republic, headquarters and oldest/largest plant), Bruntál (Czech Republic, the youngest and most modern plant), and Singen (Germany, sales and pre-development). Quality is anchored by EN ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 certifications, which are prerequisites for automotive OEM supply.

Strojmetal earns revenue as a B2B contract manufacturer through direct enterprise sales relationships with automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, with pricing on a custom-quote basis tied to component specifications and volumes. It sells exclusively into a single vertical (automotive chassis), with no public revenue, headcount, or order-book disclosure. The GTM relies on long-cycle co-development and platform-locked supply agreements rather than transactional marketing, and is supported by a modest LinkedIn/Facebook presence and a centralized MTX Career portal used for hiring.

• Bharat Forge: Bharat Forge is the world's largest forging company, producing forged and machined automotive components (chassis, drivetrain, engine) for global OEMs including European premium brands. Its aluminum forging capabilities and global footprint make it a direct competitor to Strojmetal on cross-border platform tenders.
• Hirschvogel: Hirschvogel is a German-based, family-owned forging group specializing in steel and aluminum forged components for the automotive industry (chassis, drivetrain, engine). It is one of the closest direct competitors to Strojmetal in European aluminum chassis forging, with comparable customer base (premium OEMs), similar technology (hot/cold forging + machining), and overlapping program types.
• Gestamp: Gestamp is a Spanish tier-1 automotive supplier focused on metal automotive components (chassis, body-in-white, mechanisms). It produces aluminum and steel chassis parts using stamping, hot forming, and forging – directly comparable to Strojmetal's aluminum chassis components business for global OEMs.
