Our Hsistory

Home » History

The company was established in 1882 by Mr. Ioannis Voutas. Today, it is managed by the fourth generation of Voutas family and it has been modernized to meet the growing industrial demands expanding to many fields regarding heavy-duty transportation and lifting projects. Successfully combining up-to-date road-transport and lifting equipment as well as highly trained personnel and 128 years of experience, we are able to guarantee safe and perfect execution of every project we are assigned with.

Since 1882 we have contributed to many industrial ventures in Greece such as Greek private owned enterprises, refineries and construction companies. We will be honoured to include you in our clientele.
