Kovohutě Čelákovice was originally established up by Messrs. Stabenow and Galauner as a small workshop in Prague in 1860. The factory was moved to Čelákovice in 1906 and became a joint stock company "Kovodělné akciové závody Stabenow" in 1920. In 1945, the company was handed over to the National Administration, and from January 1, 1946 it was known as "České válcovny kovů". During the years 1949 to 1989, the company's name was "Kovohutě, n.p".

The present joint stock company was set up by the National Property Fund of the Czech Republic in 1994, and its privatization was carried out during the second wave of the coupon privatization process in 1994-'95.
