By being locally present, MAPAL ensures fast response times, customised support and smooth coordination for customers in mainland China and supports Chinese customers when they expand internationally. MAPAL operates three production sites dedicated to serving customers in mainland China: two plants in Shanghai and one in Tainan, Taiwan. This regional presence guarantees flexibility and proximity to the market.

Supporting customers across industries

From the automotive and aerospace sectors to general machining, MAPAL supports manufacturers in mainland China with reliable, high-precision tools and services. In addition to the production, sale and service of tools, MAPAL also offers tool management and re-tooling services, comprehensive project support and tool lifecycle management – helping customers extend tool life, optimize productivity, and reduce operating costs.

Producing locally to keep delivery times short is a main focus of MAPAL’s international operations network. Tool groups produced locally for the Chinese market include solid carbide tools, PCD tools, PCD/PcBN inserts and blades, guide pad tools and tools with indexable inserts.       This approach has earned MAPAL the trust of many well-known companies operating in China, including numerous international OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.
