New Innovation Centre at the Salzburg site

The recently completed Research and Innovation Centre, which opened in May 2018, is a sign of this ongoing development. Around 100 employees who are directly involved in the development of the product have moved in – from Development to Marketing. The open-office concept as well as the short distances help promote good cooperation, and this centre is an architectural investment in the future.
 

Creating Innovation

At Frontale 2018, Maco showed how this can look with studies such as the ‘Window of the Future’ and the innovative locking system. This journey towards smart building components is ongoing. It is therefore no surprise that MACO has adopted the motto “Creating Innovation” and is revolutionising

the industry with creative solutions. The developments are being driven forward together with partners and always with a focus on the customer benefit.

Expansion in the Sliding product area

In recent years, MACO has positioned itself heavily in the lift and slide segment, not least through the acquisition of Hautau in 2018, and is further expanding its expertise as a system provider. The lift and slide study resulted in a market-ready product called InfinityView. This combines a maximum glass surface in a minimal frame and is completely barrier-free, not only in its threshold construction but also thanks to being motorised at the push of a button. Pre-assembled components along with CE and RC2 certification by MACO make assembly easier for fabricators and save them doing their own certification.

Investment in door lock production

With the latest generation of the PROTECT series, MACO is now playing in the Premier League of door locks. With clever, modular components, all common door solutions can now be implemented with little effort and reduced storage. The new automatic and motorised door locks integrate perfectly into technology for maximum safety and tightness with accessories for the modern front door. For this purpose, investments are constantly being made in production technology, research and quality assurance. As an expert in security and burglary prevention, MACO is well-known in the industry and is in great demand as a specialist in retro-fitting.

With tradition into the future

Since its foundation in 1947, MACO has been based in Salzburg, Austria. In addition to its headquarters, this family-owned company operates two further production plants in Austria, one in

Russia and one in Poland. In addition, there are 15 subsidiaries worldwide. In total, the hardware manufacturer employs more than 2,600 people, securing a 96 percent export share to 40 countries.
