Mifa officially launches new sustainable bath line for surface treatments

Mifa has officially started the construction of the new, sustainable bath line for surface treatments. This means that the demolition of two of our buildings has begun. These buildings will make way for the expansion of our Surface Treatment building. The new bath line, to be installed, will enable us to expand our surface treatment techniques and utilise our expertise more efficiently, particularly for the industry, aerospace and mobility market.

 

Sustainable Entrepreneurship

The new bath line will be fully equipped with advanced water purification. By implementing water pumps and other innovative technologies, we aim to significantly reduce our CO2 emissions and better integrate our sustainable entrepreneurship into every step of the production process. This is a beautiful and important milestone for Mifa to serve our customers even better.

Aluminium surface treatment

The benefits of Surface Treatments at Mifa

Aluminium offers various possibilities for manufacturing high-quality profiles. However, despite the many advantages of aluminium, it can also be susceptible to certain properties such as corrosion, wear, poor thermal conductivity, or increased friction. Therefore, it is crucial to choose the right surface treatment. Our engineers are happy to assist you with this.

Mifa offers a diverse range of surface treatments, such as:

  • Anodising
  • Passivating
  • Applying polymer layers

Each surface treatment enhances different properties of the aluminium profile. But our surface treatments offer even more benefits, including:

  • Optimal protection against corrosion;
  • Improved surface structure and roughness;
  • Achieving desired reflectivity;
  • Application of colour or electrical insulation;
  • Enhanced wear resistance;
  • Better adhesion for gluing or painting.

SodaTASTE Bright Dip

Unique bright-dip on the profiles of SodaTASTE

Together with our customers at Mifa, we create the best end product. With one of our knowledge partners, SodaTASTE, we have anodised aluminium bottles in colour. During the design phase, various steps were taken to achieve a unique product. A great example of how Mifa employs co-engineering to collaborate with the customer during the design phase.
