LANTEK STRENGTHENS MARKET LEADERSHIP WITH 40% INCREASE IN TURNOVER IN THE LAST THREE YEARS

Lantek, a multinational that develops and markets CAD-CAM/MES/ERP solutions and is a pioneer in the digitalisation of sheet metal sector businesses, has further consolidated its market leadership once again, after announcing its 2021 results. In spite of the pandemic, the company has recorded sales of 26.6 million euros, with an increase in sales to machine tool manufacturers of 40%.

2020 had already been a record-breaking year in figures for the company, despite the Covid-19 crisis and its strict restrictive measures, but it was in 2021 that the Spanish multinational reached a historical high in sales, with a total increase of 26% over the prior year.

At the end of the year, the company recorded over 29,000 active customers, with 3,400 new ones across approximately one hundred countries.

Italy is precisely where Lantek has consolidated its presence even further, with the construction of a new building. Located in Turin, these facilities cover a surface area of over 1,200 m2 and will be the new headquarters of the company on the Italian peninsula. Italy is, moreover, one of the main markets in terms of global relevance, both in terms of volume and speed of growth in the area of Solutions or Digitalisation of companies in the sector.

Committed to innovation

With the aim of boosting its technological leadership, the company is implementing a long-term growth and R&D investment plan that will remain ongoing until 2025, having doubled its office capacity at the Torre Iberdrola location in Bilbao.

“In 2022, we are making the largest investment in our company's history: In this first stage of our strategic expansion plan, we have increased our commitment to research and development by 70%. Our workforce will grow by 50%, with a special emphasis on the R&D area and our international customer care team”, stated Alberto López de Biñaspre, CEO of Lantek.
