Metsi Group’s heritage reaches back to 1841 with the founding of the Helsinki Mechanical Institute, a pioneer of Finnish technology and industrial know-how. Since then, the Group has grown through generations of innovation, serving both research and industry with high-quality mechanical engineering solutions.

After privatization from the Technical Research Centre of Finland VTT in 2000, Metsi continued its rapid development through acquisitions and international growth. In 2021, the Group expanded into cargo loading technology by acquiring Simec Systems, then a specialist in demanding and unique cargo handling solutions. Since joining the Group, Simec Systems has grown its focus and today stands as a recognized provider of Automated Truck Loading Systems (ATLS).

With nearly two centuries of engineering heritage and a strong commitment to innovation, Metsi Group today delivers reliable technology solutions and automated loading systems to customers worldwide.
