A joke
In the past, people often stood at the counter to buy a single piece of tube or a plate. This took a lot of time. Started out as a joke, a web shop was created to offer these products online from leftover products. This is how Metaalshopper was started.
The concept turned out to be a success, the product range was expanded with tubes, profiles and strips, but also interior products like bookends, wardrobe rails and banisters.
