The company was started in 1987 by Odysseus Ioannou (President) and Alexander Palamiotis (Managing Director) both graduates of Newcastle University, U.K. with degrees in shipbuilding.

After working for several years in the shipping industry and having considerable experience with diesel engines they established the company ERGON LTD.

The company originally acted as an intermediary for the buying and selling of diesel engine spare parts and in 1989 ERGON Ltd. expanded its activities to include stockholding imported spare parts for re-selling. At the same time it gradually started developing the idea of manufacturing certain parts for diesel engines and the first machinery was bought.

In 1990 ERGON Ltd. ventured into the production of consumable spare parts for diesel engines and over the next few years the product range and production capacity greatly increased. More machines were bought, high-technology was introduced into the production line (CNCs), and in 1993 after moving to their own new and larger premises (2000 sq. metres), the company became a corporation and had their name changed to ERGON S.A.

The factory is situated in the industrial area of Aspropirgo in Attica, Greece. Initially, it produced parts for stuffing boxes and other part accessories. From 1994 to 1996, the company expanded into the manufacturing of spare parts for turbochargers, fuel injectors and piston rings.

Ergon S.A. produces and trades in spare parts for medium and high-powered diesel engines for propulsion and generators for ships, trains and also for electric power stations, excavating equipment etc.

 Development has been based on the company's own technical knowledge and expertise. In 1998 it acquired the Lloyds Register Quality Assurance certificate ISO 9002.
