Dexion
Dexion is a company name and brand particularly associated with the development of the "Dexion" slotted angle steel strip construction system, widely used since the 1950s for domestic and commercial shelving, storage racking, exhibition stands and accommodation purposes.
The original UK-based Dexion Ltd manufacturing company spawned several subsidiaries before eventually ceasing trading in 2003. Its bankruptcy saw the start of a long-running pension dispute with former workers.
In 2018, the parent company Constructor Group AS was taken over by Gonvarri Material Handling, a subsidiary of Gonvarri Industries. Dexion products are today manufactured in Europe at factories in Germany and Romania, part of a product portfolio including Constructor, Kasten, Kredit and Almaceno.
Dexion (Australia) Pty Ltd, spun off as a separate company in 2003 and is now known as Dexion Asia Pacific. The group continues to trade successfully in the APAC region, covering Australasian and Asian markets with a purpose-built manufacturing facility and corporate office in Malaysia.
