Founded in 1899, Mafell is a family company and manufacturer of high-end portable machines for professional users in the carpentry and joining segments. They have been designing and producing the world’s finest and most complete line of portable timber framing tools since 1928.

In 1990, Mafell moved into the world’s most advanced tool manufacturing facility in Oberndorf a.N, Germany, about an hour south of Stuttgart. Mafell manufactures nearly every component for their tools in-house to the highest quality standards. They use state-of-the-art CNC machines, advanced plastic injection molding equipment, and the most advanced electric motor manufacturing systems. Mafell has a fully integrated manufacturing plant and approximately 360 highly skilled long-term dedicated employees.

The company is known worldwide for both its close relations with woodworkers and their determination in implementing the special needs and wishes of professional carpenters. Customers’ feedback makes a critical contribution to the development, design and innovation of Mafell products.

Mafell tools are built for heavy-duty continuous operation under extreme conditions. This toughness, combined with light weight alloys and advanced technical innovations, result in long term precision and performance. There’s a tradition of innovation that will continue to produce the finest carpentry tools for generations to come.
