New trades focused publication in Hungary, A Bádogos magazine, profiled our company president, Erno Ovari in an article of their current issue. Erno, a native Hungarian, has an interesting story to tell. The article discusses his start in trade school as a youth in Hungary, to his experience, education and credentialing in Germany to his current ventures and adventures in the United States.
Though Hungary has a solid set of skilled artisans and engineers in the metal roofing and cladding trade, Germany, not generally as encumbered by the volume of historical outside intervention as its neighbor to the east, has enjoyed a more robust and progressive educational program. Coupled with more nebulous factors like culture, hard elements such as careful legislation have led Germany to be recognized as arguably the world’s foremost authority on everything metal building envelope related. Indeed this is a moniker they have possessed for hundreds of years.
Understanding this, Erno left Hungary at a young age to further his skills and experience in the best place in the world to do so. He has since attained the top honor as “Master” earning the “Meisterbrief” degree and is among the most credentialed in his field in the world.
Bringing a little known trade to the United States involved changing how he thought about and traditionally had done business, to better serve his New World clients. Fine Metal Roof Tech serves a global community, yet specializes in the unique needs of the American and Canadian market.
