Metron, one of Europe’s most modern and highly automated elevator manufacturers, is launching a new 3.0-million-euro investment programme for the 2026-2028 period, further expanding its production capabilities at its manufacturing base in Serres, northern Greece, and strengthening its presence in more than 50 countries.
The new programme follows the company’s previous 8.0-million-euro investment cycle. Metron has invested 11 million euros over the past two years, underscoring its commitment to manufacturing excellence, technological upgrading and the continued expansion of its international footprint.
“The investments made by Metron are a long-term strategic choice rather than a short-term decision. Through this new 3.0-million-euro programme, we are increasing productivity, accelerating the factory’s digital transformation and laying the foundations for the company’s next phase of international growth,” the company said.
Scope of the Programme
The new investment programme includes the installation of new state-of-the-art production equipment, further automation of manufacturing processes, expanded use of robotic applications, upgrades to production and warehouse information systems, and new infrastructure aimed at increasing productivity and operational efficiency.
More specifically, the programme covers new sheet metal processing equipment, robotic handling and welding systems, CNC machines, new software solutions for the Engineering and Research & Development departments, a Manufacturing Execution System (MES), a new Warehouse Management System (WMS), automated storage infrastructure, and equipment designed to strengthen production continuity.
Objective
The programme aims to further enhance Metron’s production capacity, reduce manufacturing lead times, optimise resource management and improve flexibility in meeting the growing demands of international markets.
Anna Sandrou, co-CEO of Metron, said the company’s growth “is not based on short-term moves but on a consistent long-term investment strategy. Our goal is to continue growing steadily while maintaining the quality, reliability and flexibility that have characterised Metron for more than 30 years.”
