Mattro

What Mattro does

Mattro is a technology-driven engineering company headquartered in Schwaz, Austria, operating as a wholly owned subsidiary of HAWE under the legal name Hawe Mattro GmbH. The company specializes in electric Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) platforms and proprietary lithium-ion battery systems designed for off-highway and harsh-environment applications, serving OEMs and system integrators as a long-term engineering partner rather than a direct end-product vendor.

Its core product portfolio consists of two tracked UGV platforms — the ROVO GEN 3, an agile fully electric tracked vehicle engineered as a scalable foundation from prototype to series production, and the CRAWLER, a compact tracked platform optimized for high payload, low center-of-gravity operation in confined and demanding scenarios — supported by in-house developed lithium-ion battery systems purpose-built for off-highway durability, safety, and long service life. The platforms feature modular, integration-ready architecture with optional platform adapter kits, enabling customers to embed autonomy, payloads, and mission-specific subsystems.

Mattro generates revenue primarily through B2B hardware sales of UGV platforms and battery systems, supplemented by long-term engineering partnership services covering electrification expertise and integration support. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting OEMs and system integrators globally, complemented by an online customer portal (hosted under HAWE) and platform configurator for technical specification. No public pricing, volume metrics, or customer logos are disclosed, and the company does not sell directly to end-users in defense or industrial markets.

Products and services

• ROVO GEN 3 An agile, fully electric tracked Unmanned Ground Vehicle engineered for off-road use and seamless system integration. Designed as a scalable foundation, ROVO enables reliable mobility for autonomous and remotely operated applications from prototype to series production, and supports an optional platform adapter kit for integration into customer systems.
• CRAWLER A compact tracked UGV optimized for applications where compact dimensions, high payload capacity, and stability are essential. Its low center of gravity and tracked architecture make it ideal for confined spaces and demanding industrial or emergency scenarios where precise, reliable movement is required.
• Battery Systems In-house developed lithium-ion battery systems designed for off-highway use. Built for durability, safety, and long service life, they provide the reliable energy backbone for UGV platforms and mobile machines operating in harsh environments.

Emerging players

• Aethon: US-based developer of autonomous mobile robots for hospital logistics and industrial material handling. Comparable as a mobile robot platform provider targeting integrator customers, though in a more controlled-environment vertical.

Broad incumbents

• L3Harris Technologies: Major US defense prime with a T7 and other robotic systems portfolio serving military and homeland security markets. Overlaps with Mattro's defense-adjacent UGV positioning and has far greater scale, certifications, and procurement relationships.
• Boston Dynamics: US-headquartered commercial robotics firm (Spot, Stretch) owned by Hyundai. While focused on legged and warehouse robots, it competes in the broader autonomous mobile robot space and has the resources to enter tracked off-road segments where Mattro operates.
• QinetiQ: UK-headquartered defense and security technology company offering unmanned systems and robotics for military customers. A broad incumbent in mission-critical unmanned platforms that competes indirectly with Mattro for defense integrator relationships.

Direct peers

• Milrem Robotics: Estonian-headquartered developer of tracked hybrid and electric unmanned ground vehicles (Themis, Type-X) for defense and commercial applications. Direct competitor to Mattro in the tracked, off-highway UGV segment serving defense and industrial integrators.
• Ghost Robotics: US-based maker of legged and tracked unmanned ground vehicles (Vision 60, Sprint) primarily for defense and security applications. Directly competes with Mattro in mission-critical UGVs for harsh environments and government end customers.
• Clearpath Robotics: Canadian manufacturer of mobile robot platforms (Husky, Jackal, Warthog) used by OEMs and researchers for autonomous off-road applications. Closely comparable to Mattro as a platform provider selling integration-ready UGV foundations to system integrators.
• Sarcos Technology and Robotics: US-listed developer of robotic systems for industrial, defense, and aerospace applications. Comparable to Mattro in targeting mission-critical industrial and defense use cases requiring ruggedized, integration-ready platforms.

Others

• AutoStore: Norwegian-listed warehouse automation company offering cube-based storage and mobile robot systems. Thematically related as a mobile robotics vendor but operating in a fundamentally different vertical (indoor warehouse) from Mattro's off-highway UGV focus.

Regional players

• Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR): Denmark-based manufacturer of autonomous mobile robots primarily for indoor logistics and manufacturing. Adjacent to Mattro as a mobile robot platform vendor but focused on warehouse/indoor use cases rather than off-highway harsh environments.
