Manufacturing Industry Association – member organizations

The Manufacturing Industry Association brings together leading Czech and foreign industrial companies operating in the fields of glassmaking, heating, food processing, the automotive industry, and technical materials processing. The association’s members focus on the production of cutting-edge technical components, sustainable solutions, and export-oriented production with high added value. They are united by an emphasis on innovation, quality of workmanship, in-house product development, and, in many cases, connections to international markets. The companies cover both traditional industrial sectors (e.g., the manufacture of screws, heating elements, or glass) and modern technologies—such as smart electronics for the automotive sector or advanced eco-friendly combustion systems.

The association includes companies such as SCHOTT Flat Glass CR, a manufacturer of technical glass for refrigeration and optics; ROMOTOP, a leading European producer of designer fireplaces; SHM, a specialist in PVD coatings and surface treatments; RACIO, a traditional manufacturer of healthy rice snacks; Šroubárna Kyjov, with more than a century of tradition in the production of fasteners; Witzenmann Opava, a supplier of flexible metal hoses and expansion joints for the automotive and energy industries; and Continental Automotive Czech Republic, a major subsidiary of a global group that develops and manufactures automotive electronics, sensors, and safety systems.

These companies play a significant role in exports, invest in their own research and development, and contribute to technological progress in the manufacturing industry in the Czech Republic and across Europe. The association provides them with a platform for collaboration, the exchange of experiences, and industry coordination.
