Our story

GIGANTEX was founded on 1 May 1998 as a management buyout, which was unusual at the time. Five managers and 13 employees have grown into a team of around 190 people. More than 85% of our managers have been with us for at least ten years – our most valuable asset.

Since our foundation we have been developing and manufacturing carbon components for bicycles and industry. In 2007 we began developing our wheelchairs – with the same experience in R&D, quality assurance and production.
