What Pro-Flex does

Pro-Flex Slibebørster ApS is a Danish privately held manufacturer of professional sanding brushes, headquartered in Risskov, Denmark, and founded in 1999. The company designs and produces a portfolio of sanding brush products — singlerow brushes, triple brushes, single brushes, angle-head brushes, and universal sanding brush cores — engineered to be compatible with all brush sanding machines and cores on the market. It also produces a lightweight 'Use & Throw Away' disposable brush line for handheld machines.

The company's core technical differentiator is cross-vendor machine and core compatibility, allowing Pro-Flex brushes to function as drop-in replacements for existing equipment fleets. Its primary end market is the wood industry (furniture manufacturers, woodworking shops, wood processing facilities), with a secondary customer segment comprising machine manufacturers that source compatible brush cores and replacement consumables. Pro-Flex positions itself as a 'world known' manufacturer in its niche.

Pro-Flex operates a direct, sales-led go-to-market with quote-based pricing and no online purchasing. Customers engage via a website contact form, phone (+45 86 16 49 02), or email ([email protected]), supported by a downloadable product catalogue. The company has 11–50 employees, no disclosed funding, no parent company, and no recorded M&A, partnerships, or leadership changes in the available data.
