The new joint company saw significant growth, becoming the largest in its field [citation needed] and producing a variety of vehicles on imported chassis.

In 1934, Tangalakis split off, creating his own company, which remained the leading Greek vehicle producer for nearly three decades, also briefly venturing into passenger car manufacture.

During the Axis occupation of Greece in World War II, the factory was put under German control, but they resumed vehicle production in 1945.

In 1965, the Tangalakis family, Alexandros Ginis, Fanourios Gyrtatos & Antonis Kalogeropoulos, created TEMAX, a new company entirely focused on fire-fighting and other specialty vehicle production, which operates successfully to date.

Another branch of the original company, though, has continued the business under the Tangalakis name as importers and distributors of fire-fighting and rescue equipment, vehicle parts, etc.
