Sustainably healthy!
Shortly before the first hot summer days, we installed a water dispenser at the Ursenbach plant. You can choose between sparkling, chilled and non-chilled - depending on your preferences and the outside temperature. The water dispenser is being used diligently. By mid-October, 1016 bottles had been saved - a plus for health and environment. And as a small, healthy snack, our employees can choose between different fruits, which are delivered fresh twice a week.
Our photovoltaic system is up and running
Our company philosophy is to invest sustainably when considering upcoming renovations. That‘s why we decided to replace the existing shed roof with a flat roof to create the opportunity to generate solar power.
Thanks to the new roof, indoor temperature stability has improved significantly. This has had a positive effect on production since the lower temperature fluctuations have made it possible to further increase the quality of our machined parts. In addition, the new system contributes to a noticeable reduction in energy costs. The investment in the new roof with the photovoltaic system is a strong commitment from the Daetwyler family to Switzerland as a production location.
Fire safety training in MDC Estonia
Last week the fire brigades of Lasnamäe and Assaku visited our company.
They inspected fire safety in the office building and in the production buildings, especially high risk fire areas. The rescue teams were given an overview of how to act in case of emergency on our premises. In total, 4 teams from both rescue centres visited our company.
In general, our company received a positive fire safety assessment. In the future, we are planning to organise a joint training with the fire brigade for our employees on fire response and evacuation.
New roof for the building in Ursenbach
The renovation work has begun. The roofing of the existing shed roof will improve the climatization in the large production hall. The new roof will be equipped with photovoltaics, which will contribute to an ecological generation of electricity.
The work will last until spring 2022. Discover new pictures of the construction here.
Training about welding machines
On March 25, a theoretical training about the use of Kemppi welding machines was held in the production facilities of MDC Estonia. The training was carried out by the welding engineer (IWE) from the company RKR Seadmed.
This training was organized because some new welders have recently joined our team. Our experienced welders also had the opportunity to refresh their knowledge.
The training covered the following topics:
1.Basics of welding processes
2.Principles of correct and stable formation of the welding arc
3.Functions and settings of Kemppi welding machines
4.Welding machine faults that can be identified and corrected by the welder
A total of 23 employees attended the training.
New coffee corner and waste separation
This new waste separation is part of our Green Office policy. Waste can easily be separated into paper, rubbish, aluminium and PET.
MDC Estonia continues to be a family-friendly employer

Blechexpo / Schweisstec Stuttgart 2021
From 25 to 29 October, MDC Estonia's welding department manager and a welder visited Blechexpo/Schweisstec in Stuttgart. There were leading manufacturers of sheet metal cutting machines and welding and grinding equipment represented. The aim of the visit was to get an overview of the new equipment on the market.
This year, the trade fair attracted 50 000 visitors, with participants from 1 498 companies and 36 countries represented on an exhibition area of 108 000 square metres. Visitors to the stands paid particular attention to welding equipment, equipment for the installation and assembly of steel structures, robotisation and automation. A number of innovative production processes were also presented: three-dimensional laser cutting, water jet cutting, automatic systems for cleaning, chamfering and grinding parts.
EMO MILANO 2021
The division manager of MDC Estonia had the opportunity to visit this year's engineering exhibition in Milan, Italy.
The total number of visitors was around 60 000. Around 700 companies from 34 countries were exhibited. The whole spectrum of production was on display, from metalworking to metal cutting, from robotics to automation, from hand tools to machinery, from mechatronics to more complex technologies. More than 3 500 machines were on offer, worth more than half a billion euros.
The aim of the visit was to see innovations in the field of metal cutting and to identify companies producing portal-type machines.
We gained valuable information on different machines for future investments.
