catalyst investments | Metro GlassTech
Acquired in August 2006, Metro GlassTech is a processor and distributor of customised value-added glass products for the New Zealand building and construction industry. The company is the market leader, and has a strong track record of organic growth, and growth by acquisition. The business sources float and laminated glass from leading international suppliers. Metro’s customers are typically aluminium window fabricators, commercial construction companies, glass merchants and home builders. Metro GlassTech operates a regional business model with seven sites across the North and South Island of New Zealand.


Metro’s unique service model, dedicated staff, competitive pricing, processing capability and state of the art facilities make it the preferred supplier of value added glass products to the building and construction industry.

 New Zealand is experiencing favourable glass industry dynamics, driven by the increased use of glass in buildings, and the regulatory focus on energy efficiency and safety leading to the use of higher value glass products. In addition, Metro GlassTech is well positioned to continue to gain share through delivering technically superior products, with market leading service, at competitive prices. Metro has also grown its market presence with four follow-on acquisitions.
