“Becoming the European Center of Excellence for Comprehensive Technological Solutions of Aluminium Components” became the company’s vision.
To realize its newly adopted slogan “For aluminium with glance”, the decision was made in 2005 to build and launch its own aluminium anodizing plant.
Lesnina Emmi exhibited for the first time as an independent exhibitor at the world’s largest aluminium fair in Essen, Germany.
The company became an authorized exporter. New CNC machining centers, saws, CNC milling machine, welding robot, bending machines, and deburring machines were purchased. In addition to individual aluminium components, demanding final products also appeared in the product range; customers no longer requested only mechanical processing, but complete technological solutions.
The company deliberately developed in construction and development. Mechanical processing was joined by assembly with other materials, surface treatment, and packaging for the end consumer.
The company was privatized as a joint-stock company.
The production of various aluminium products expanded significantly.
Successful certification according to the ISO 9001:1994 standard followed.

Company management strengthened the Western European orientation of its operations, but most market activities still took place in the markets of the then-common state.

The production program expanded. The company became a supplier to some Western European companies.
An additional activity was registered – the production of all types of aluminium products. The company acquired equipment for profiling metal strips by cold rolling and began processing extruded aluminium profiles.
The company was renamed Packaging and Carpentry – EMMI.
It dealt with wood cutting, production of wooden products, and carpentry. It secured better working conditions by adapting and constructing facilities on the edge of the city park.
The beginnings of today’s company Aluminium Kety Emmi date back to 1946, when the company Žagotrgoles was established in Slovenska Bistrica.
It dealt with the purchase and sale of wood, sawing, and the production of wooden crates by special order.
