Since 1989
Our history is made up of Milestones conquered and achieved. These have only been made possible through sheer hard work, total commitment to our clients and by a team of dedicated people that are proud to represent the Schmidt Light Metal Group.
It was in 1989 that the first stone was laid for the building that today houses part of our casting cells and ever since then we have been growing, improving and investing.
