The Schlote brand represents a global technology and competence network of highly specialised industrial metal processing plants with innovative automation concepts under the umbrella of Schlote Holding GmbH.
Founded in 1969 in Harsum, Lower Saxony as a pioneer in the industrial processing of metal castings, we are now a supplier and industry partner of international renown – since 2014 also with our own plant in China. Our production lines are designed for small, medium and in particular large series.
We are experts for precision parts – a midsize family-run company. We overcome a wide variety of challenges for our customers, both domestic and international. With around 1,500 employees, a total of nine diversified Schlote plants in Germany and abroad serve as development partners and series suppliers for the automobile and supplier industry, foundry technology and many other industrial and commercial customers. Only few competitors have comparable expertise in the production of precision components for complete systems today.
We offer highly specialised solutions to meet customer demands through our two business areas, Industrial Metal Processing and Industrial Technology Solutions:
