Nieros Metal Tovarna opreme d.o.o. (NIEROS) is a Slovenian manufacturer of stainless steel hygiene equipment, industrial washing systems, and intralogistics solutions, headquartered in Slovenj Gradec and tracing continuous operations to a blacksmith plant founded in 1773. The company has been 100% owned by the German parent NIEROS since 1990 and operates a wholly-owned German sister company, NIEROS SSE GmbH, established in 2002. Its product portfolio is organized into four categories: Hygiene Equipment (hygiene stations, footwear cleaning, hand cleaning, equipment cleaning, boot dryers, changing room equipment, low-pressure cleaning), Industrial Washers (multipurpose washers for crates/bins/pallets/IBC containers plus item-specific and specialized machines), Logistics Solutions (transport systems, food processing lines, material handling equipment including lift systems and tilters, and warehouse systems ranging from gravitational to fully automated), and Essential Equipment (worktables, bins, trolleys, railings, ham presses), with Dyson Airblade hand dryers offered as a complementary line. Manufacturing uses stainless steel grades including DIN 1.4571 (AISI 316L) and DIN 1.4404 (AISI 316Ti), supported by a robotized production process introduced in 2012, an in-house R&D function, and an award-winning Welding Expert System.

The company serves primarily the food and beverage and pharmaceutical industries, with additional exposure to automotive, chemical/petrochemical, agricultural, and transportation customers requiring contamination control, equipment sanitation, and material handling. Disclosed customers include Žito Group (Croatia), Hormel (China), Agrokompleks, and an automotive industry client for a custom heating chamber. Products are designed to comply with HACCP, IFS, and NSF standards, and the company holds ISO 9001:2000 certification since 1998.

NIEROS operates a sales-led, enterprise field-sales go-to-market with direct sales representatives in more than 30 countries and project-based custom engineering for larger installations. Pricing is quote-based, reflecting configuration, dimensions, material grade, and add-ons; no public price list exists and contracts typically span multiple years. The company has 51-100 employees, is privately held with no disclosed venture or private equity backing, and is not a participant in funding markets; revenue, headcount trend, and backlog are not publicly disclosed. Marketing is primarily digital via the company's multilingual website, educational blog content on industrial hygiene, and an email newsletter.
