Mirka is celebrating its 80^th birthday this year, growing from its Helsinki roots in 1943 to one of the world’s leading manufacturers in the surface finishing industry.

With innovation and quality at its heart, the company’s core vision has remained the same for eight decades:to give people and its customers the opportunity to perform better and achieve that perfect finish.

Mirka’s CEO Stefan Sjöberg said, “The most important element of our evolution has always been to listen to the voice of our customers. We are proud of all the milestones we have achieved, but to stay relevant we must also look forward to the next big thing, and here we see a lot of potential.

“The Green Deal in the European Union, and the green transition in the world in general, are things that will shape how we look at our business and how we perform. The company that solves this puzzle will be relevant for many years to come, and looking at our organisation today, I am confident that Mirka will be here to celebrate its 90^th and 100^th anniversaries as well.”
