Why Mustad Belgium?
A partner that honours its commitments over the long term.
Comprehensive in-house technologies.
Machining, 3D metrology, finishing and assembly are performed in-house. One point of contact, full control of the production cycle.
Strong technical expertise built since 1948.
Decades of precision machining experience and a commitment to continuous improvement, with ISO 9001 certification held since 1996, currently to ISO 9001:2015.
Focused on keeping our commitments.
From framework agreements to on-demand call-off, our production is organised around your requirements.
Around 60 production machines. Lights-out (unmanned) production, up to 24/7
Unmanned shifts and round-the-clock operation ensure responsiveness and on-time delivery, even on your most demanding programmes.
Continuous investment. Responsive production. Competitive pricing.
A sustained investment policy has built a competitive machine park, designed to complete complex parts in a single machine.
Volumes.
From a few thousand to several hundred thousand parts per part number, up to very high volumes of several million parts on multi-spindle machines.
What we offer: a flexible supplier model.
Have a drawing and a production requirement? That is our core business. For more specific situations, we have six offers:
Primary supplier, long-term series production
Mustad takes industrial responsibility for the component and delivers recurring production volumes.
Reliable second-source supply
A critical part depends on a single supplier. We industrialise it in our own workshop to secure your supply.
Additional production capacity
Your workload exceeds your capacity. We produce in parallel with your workshop.
Co-engineering and design-to-cost
A part costs too much or is difficult to manufacture. We review the process, material and tolerances with you.
Ready-to-integrate sub-assemblies
You assemble parts sourced from several suppliers. We deliver the complete assembly, ready to integrate.
Reverse engineering and obsolescence management
A part no longer has a supplier or an up-to-date drawing. We remanufacture it from the existing part.
