We are growing even in the midst of a crisis

People often ask me how ICE is doing at this time, "How's business? Do you have enough work? Are you firing?" And I can safely answer, "We're growing. It's critical to maintaining success".

We are consistently improving production efficiency for our customers, developing new products and looking for new fields and avenues. Those who do not grow will be left behind. Yes, it means rolling up our sleeves and working hard, looking for new team members, and at the same time counting the costs associated with innovation and growth. We know it will pay off.

In fact, in my nearly ten years at ICE, I don't remember it being any different. With the gradual building of the ICE brand, the level of awareness and trust among our customers is growing. Our sales revenue went up 22% year-on-year to CZK 378 million in 2022. Our projects are getting bigger, which confirms the confidence with which our customers come to us. We are pleased to continue working with our current customers. Our people create joint teams with them; we understand their needs, and we find it easier to fulfil their expectations. 

While ICE was celebrating its tenth birthday, we were finishing a big project for our parent company Strojmetal. At the beginning of the project, we used modern simulations to design and verify the tact, material flows and layout of the line. Thanks to this, it took only fifteen weeks to install and bring the line to life. Our control system connects ten technological units from six different companies. We have practically verified our input simulations and subsequently accelerated the line's clock speed by approximately 10% compared to the customer's requirements, which we consider to be our greatest achievement. 

On this project of a super modern forging line, we had the opportunity to use all our existing knowledge and experience. And the customer and other suppliers were surprised at how elegantly ICE works.
