Metro Performance Glass

Metro Performance Glass Limited (Metro) was founded in 1987 and went public on the NZX and ASX in 2014. Metro is one of the largest New Zealand based manufacturers of glass for the commercial and residential construction markets, with four manufacturing plants. 

In 2016, Metro entered the Australian market through the acquisition of the Australian Glass Group, the company now operates three plants across the Tasman. Metro produces a range of generic and customisable products such as windows, doors, internal partitions, balustrades, pool fencing, showers and mirrors. 

Despite employing about 1200 staff, Metro is a small company in terms of market capitalisation, with a value of less than $100 million. Simon Mander has led the company as CEO since late 2018.
