As Time Went By

We have been around for over 30 years

The history of the company began back in the 1990s.

The Story of Our Company

From a garage to a production hall

RONELT was founded in 1993, when the current managing director, Jan Kedroň, was just 8 years old. The original Ronelt business association was established by his father Zdeněk Kedroň together with Ladislav Ordelt at the house of the Kedroň family in the Jaroslavice district of Zlín.

The first office was located in the hallway of the Kedroň family home, and the first dot matrix printer was so slow that one could smoke a cigarette while waiting for a single invoice to print. Many of our core employees started working for the company in the 1990s and have been with us ever since.

We originally produced exhaust systems, power units and spare parts, tube bending followed shortly after

In the early days, the company focused on manufacturing exhaust systems for cars (Škoda 1000, 110, 105) with subsequent production of spare parts for trucks (LIAZ, TATRA, Avia, etc.) and various types of stationary units, such as compressors, generators and more.

A major turning point came with the acquisition of our first tube bending machine, which expanded our product portfolio to include bent exhaust pipes for use as spare parts and protective frames for cars, vans, and trucks. In the 1990s, this type of production became the core activity of our company.

Over time, custom bending of tubes and profiles became an integral part of our service offering

A major milestone in the company´s development came when we introduced tube and profile bending as a service to meet specific customer needs. This shift was accompanied by further investments in new CNC bending machines, additional technologies, and a gradual transition towards custom manufacturing alongside our own product lines.

Since then, we have continuously expanded our tooling and machinery to respond flexibly to evolving market and the customer demands while maintaining the highest possible quality of our final products.

We also weathered the challenges brought by legislative changes in 2003

In 2003, EU legislation regarding the installation of protective frames on vehicles changed significantly, resulting in a legal requirement to cease their manufacture. These frames had been an important part of our product portfolio and a key source of income for the company.

However, we managed to offset this loss by producing exhaust systems for stationary units for a major international client from the Netherlands, the company DISCOM B.W., which lasted until 2018.

In 2021, we took a logical step towards the strategic development and stabilization of the company

Since 2021, RONELT s.r.o. has been solely owned by the descendants of Mr. and Mrs. Kedroň. That same year, we discontinued the serial production of exhaust systems, effectively ending our own product line.

Today, our company is fully focused on the customer, their needs and, purely custom manufacturing.

our motto

Our advantage lies in our ability to bend what others cannot handle.
