About us
You come to Plåt & Mekano Romator if you have high demands on your sheet metal products or service and commitment from a subcontractor near Stockholm.
About us
Plåt & Mekano Romator is a family business in the mechanical engineering industry with a long history of innovation and craftsmanship. We have been working with subcontracting in sheet metal processing since 1975, when Plåt & Mekano in Täby was founded by Rune and Christina Mauritzon. Rune, who was a trained blacksmith, realised early on that demand was shifting towards sheet metal processing. After a few years, the business moved to Ledungsvägen in Täby, and in 1985 the current facility was built at Eldarvägen 2.
In 2010, Romator in Bandhagen was acquired, adding valuable experience and a modern machine park. Romator was moved to Täby and merged with Plåt & Mekano, which further strengthened the company's capacity and offering.
This is what you get when you choose us
- Proximity with local manufacturing in Täby.
- Quick response to your requests/requests.
- New technologies and innovative thinking.
- 50+ years of experience.
- A family business that does the best possible for customers.
