GIAB Machining

What GIAB Machining does

GIAB Machining OÜ is a privately held Estonian precision contract manufacturer founded in 2006 and headquartered in Narva, Estonia. The company produces CNC-machined components, mechanical subassemblies, and — through its strategic partnership with Swedish investment caster TPC Components AB — investment casted parts. Its equipment base spans roughly 14 CNC milling centers (Stama, Kitamura, Matsuura, Quaser, Mori Seiki, Mitsui Seiki, Victor) and CNC turning centers (Doosan Puma, Mori Seiki) capable of work envelopes up to 500x1000mm in milling and Z=1000mm/D=300mm in turning, with achievable tolerances of 0.01mm. Supporting operations include grinding, robotic grinding, welding, sandblasting, and hydraulic pressing.

The company is quality-certified to ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 by Bureau Veritas, with SPC, 8D, A3, and Six Sigma methodologies embedded in its quality system — a setup explicitly described as driven by automotive industry demands. Named end-customers include Porsche, BMW, Volvo, and Scania for automotive gearbox and spare parts, Siemens for gas turbine and electrical equipment components, and unnamed industrial equipment manufacturers serving sewing, mining, lifting, and food-industry machinery.

GIAB Machining operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of GIAB Eesti OÜ, which is itself 100% owned by Swedish investment company Gabrielsson Invest AB, a holding structure established in 2018 when ownership transferred from the original founding parent TPC Components AB. Revenue is generated through project-based B2B manufacturing contracts on a quote-based pricing model that is not publicly disclosed. The company employs 11-50 people based at its single Narva manufacturing facility, with no public funding rounds, no M&A activity beyond the 2018 ownership restructuring, and no disclosed AI/ML or software capabilities.
