From the beginning, the company, which takes its name from its founder’s grandmother, has put crucial values such as reliability and precision first, which over the years has secured the trust of many companies that have chosen it for their business.

Mafalda Industries History
1970
Mafalda is founded, a mechanical engineering workshop by Palladino Flavio.

2001
Acquisition of the 5 – axis MCM – centre: action testa tilting.
2007
The growth has been constant and in 2007 a business unit dedicated to the Automotive Industry was created.
2008
After the first large order in 2008 from a foundry in the Canavese area for the production of a part for the Renault, the activity continued regularly thanks to the latter, which continued to order parts despite the market downturn following the collapse of Lehman Brothers. After 2008, there was an exponential growth and the company received new, increasingly powerful equipment, such as the first inverted vertical turning machine, which was essential to carry out orders in the best possible way.
2010
In 2010, an important collaboration was initiated with SKF, a leading manufacturer of bearings. The collaboration proved so fruitful that a new dedicated factory was opened in 2014. In the meantime, the company has further expanded and acquired a new machine, the Famar Tandem 200.
With the death of the founder, the two branches of the company were once again united under the direction of his son, who has continued to operate with the same professionalism as always but with an even greater focus on the technologies of the future.
2018
Since 2018, Mafalda has been made up of two poles, dedicated respectively to the industrial and automotive sectors, characterised by flexibility and attention to each specific need and, since 2019, named Mafalda Industries.
