Prototyping and testing products and materials
Our experts work with demanding mold design and manufacture, prototypes and pilot series.
Smaller carbon footprint – a more versatile use of wood and the promotion of a circular economy
Supporting product design
With decades of experience, we make small and medium-sized molds and dies for the wood, furniture, metal and reinforced plastic industries.
Our versatile woodworking machinery is flexible enough to produce new prototypes and test batches. Mechanical testing of materials for new products helps in product development, ensuring both market suitability and the quality for existing products.
We manufacture engineered wood products, such as LVL, CLT and plywood products, from customers’ test materials. Our compression equipment allows programming pressure and heating cycles for the simulation of production processes.
The comprehensive research facilities at Mikpolis Research and Testing Laboratory enable a wide range of tests that can be used in product development, product quality monitoring and in complaint investigations.
