Introduction To MFE
MFE was formed in Malaysia in 1991 to accommodate the regional demand for high-quality, efficient and cost-effective construction solutions. Since those early days, MFE has developed into the world-leader in Aluminum Formwork Systems by providing our customers with continued product innovation and unparalleled quality and service.
MFE aluminum formwork allows our customers to build concrete structures that are strong, accurate in dimensions and provide high quality finished concrete surfaces. At the same time, the MFE system is easy to use, significantly speeds up construction time, and can provide substantial savings in overall construction costs.
Introduction To MFE
Since early success of our residential aluminum formwork systems, we have expanded our products’ reach to include a monolithic commercial solution, MFE Quick Deck ™ and multi-Tier external self-climbing safety platforms. MFE has become a one-stop-shop for all elements of monolithic construction.
From design, through to implementation, MFE offers a full range of services and support, including comprehensive formwork design using our in-house 3D design software and experienced on-site support.
Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, based in Port Klang, Malaysia, uses the latest production processes, including ‘Friction Stir Welding’ introduced in 2010. This advanced eco-friendly welding system used in aerospace and automotive industries. Spread over 100,000 m2 and with a workforce exceeding 2,500 personnel, MFE’s capacity has now reached over 1,500,000 m2 of formwork annually.
MFE’s on-site technical support is accepted by our customers as second to none. Our site team advises our clients in the proper handling of the equipment and trains the workforce how to cycle the formwork to achieve a 4-day per floor work cycle for mid to high-rise properties and 1 house lot per day for landed housing.
Since 1991, MFE has been the Leader in its industry …. ‘No One Does It Better.’
