Mifa Aluminium B.V.

What Mifa Aluminium B.V. does

Mifa Aluminium B.V. is a Netherlands-headquartered B2B manufacturer of precision aluminium and magnesium extrusion profiles, operating from Venlo since its founding in 1974 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the publicly listed Dutch industrial technology group Aalberts N.V. The company produces complex, thin-walled profiles with dimensional tolerances starting from ±0.02 mm and supplies fully-finished components to industrial customers in aerospace, defence, medical, mobility, and industrial automation, with named reference customers including Picanol, Rapid Shape, Helmut Fischer, B|Braun, SodaTASTE, and an undisclosed major automotive client.

The core technology stack is centred on aluminium and magnesium precision extrusion, complemented by vertically integrated downstream operations. Capabilities include co-engineering with customer design teams, prototype-to-series production, a CNC machine park of more than 30 units, automated robotic production cells (first line installed 2008, second line designed in-house in 2017), a dedicated surface treatment facility under Mifa Surface Treatment offering anodising (GLISSCOAT, HART-COAT), passivation (Surtec 650), and polymer coatings (TUFRAM, LECTROFLUOR, NEDOX), plus assembly, bending, marking/laser engraving, and belt grinding. Magnesium extrusion capability (AZ31-F and AZ61-F alloys) is positioned as a differentiated offering. Certifications including AS9100D, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, JOSCAR accreditation (ID 10012163), and EcoVadis Silver (top 15%, 2024) support access to regulated end-markets.

The commercial model is project-based B2B custom manufacturing with quote-based pricing determined by specification, tolerance, material, surface treatment, and volume, billed through multi-year contracts. The company operates an enterprise field sales motion organised around Area Sales Managers, Key Account Managers, and Segment Leaders (e.g., Segment Leader Aerospace) covering defined regions in the Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, and Sweden, with a multilingual website in six languages as the primary digital channel. Approximately 350 employees support operations, and the company has delivered on the order of 7,000,000 parts cumulatively.

Products and services

• Precision Extrusion Aluminium precision extrusion service producing profiles with dimensional tolerances from ± 0.02 mm, offering extensive design freedom for complex shapes including thin-walled profiles and multicore structures. Targeted at B2B customers in aerospace, defense, medical, mobility, and industrial markets.
• Co-engineering Collaborative engineering service in which Mifa engineers work directly with customer engineering teams to develop efficient, refined profiles, components, or products optimized for performance, material usage, and cost.
• CNC Machining CNC machining services using a machine park of over 30 CNC machines for precision finishing of extruded aluminium and magnesium profiles, enabling complete downstream processing in-house.
• Surface Treatment Comprehensive surface treatment services including anodising (GLISSCOAT, HART-COAT, technical anodising), passivation (Surtec 650), and polymer coatings (TUFRAM, LECTROFLUOR, NEDOX) applied to aluminium profiles for corrosion resistance, wear protection, and functional properties.
• Magnesium Extrusion Alternative to aluminium extrusion using magnesium alloy profiles (AZ31-F and AZ61-F alloys) that are 35% lighter than aluminium and at least 20% stronger than standard construction aluminium, with tolerances comparable to aluminium precision extrusion (± 0.02 mm).
• Assembly Complete assembly services including integration of hydraulic, pneumatic, or electrical components with quality control and testing operations, delivering fully finished products from a single source.
• Bending Various aluminium and magnesium bending methods including roller bending, press bending, swing bending, tension bending, stretch bending, and 3D bending for shaped profile requirements.
• Marking and Laser Engraving Marking, engraving, and laser marking services for product identification including type numbers and serial numbers, ensuring full traceability for industrial, medical, and aerospace applications.
• Belt Grinding Surface finishing technique creating specific visible finishes including brushed stainless steel appearance, removing surface irregularities and improving coating adhesion on aluminium and magnesium profiles.
• Robotisation Automation services using robots for loading, measuring, and product handling, including fully automated cells with multiple machines and robots (e.g., an automotive production cell with 8 machines, 4 robots, and a 100% controlled measurement station).
• Multicore Profiles Precision-extruded profiles with multiple hollow cores for complex applications requiring lightweight structures and high functional integration.
• Prototypes Prototype development service for aluminium and magnesium profiles from initial concept through to series production, enabling customers to validate designs before full-scale manufacturing.
