Lantek celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, strengthening its position as the world leader in the development and sale of software solutions for the metal industry, with a portfolio of more than 17,000 clients in more than 100 countries on the five continents. The multinational used the occasion of its annual international meeting, recently held in Malaga, to celebrate this very special anniversary with its employees.
Lantek was founded in 1986 as a company focused on developing a variety of IT-related activities, and later specialized in designing CAD/CAM/ERP solutions for the metal industry. Over these 30 years, Lantek has become the world leader in this type of comprehensive solutions, with a constant awareness of its customers’ needs and a willingness to adapt to their requirements.
Innovation has been another of its core aspects. It allocates 18% of its annual revenue to this endeavor. In this way, Lantek has continually worked to expand its line of products and achieve a two-pronged goal: on the one hand, to be a leader in developing its own CAD/CAM software for sheet cutting and punching machines with its Lantek Expert line and, on the other hand, to also lead the market in management software solutions for the machine tool sector, with Lantek Integra. Along with these solutions, it has also successfully tackled the part design, 3-D sheet part folding and tube and profile cutting segment, for which it offers its products grouped in the Lantek Flex3d line.
Currently, the Alava-based group has 14 Lantek offices all over the world. The newest offices to open are in Chile and Holland, and this year a new location is slated to be opened in the United Arab Emirates. "All of these figures demonstrate our company’s leadership in the sector and its commitment to providing global service to all of our customers wherever they are. We continually strive to innovate and improve our quality even more so we can always give the best solution," stressed Alberto Martinez, Lantek CEO.
