DISA celebrates 125-year anniversary with customers and employees

DISA, the global leader in green sand moulding technology, celebrates its 125^th anniversary on November 21, 2025. It is marking the milestone with a customer event at its headquarters in Taastrup, Denmark, on Thursday, November 20, followed by a celebration for all employees on Friday, November 21 – the company’s exact birthday.

Famed as the inventor of high-speed vertical moulding, DISA equipment has helped foundries produce high-quality castings efficiently and cost-effectively for many decades.

“Since 1900, we’ve shaped the future of foundry solutions, combining expert engineering with cutting-edge innovation,” says Ulla Hartvig Plathe Tønnesen, President of DISA Industries. “We now serve foundries in over 100 countries and our commitment to sustainability, precision, and customer success remains unwavering.”

DISA’s legacy of innovation began in 1962, with the introduction of the revolutionary DISAMATIC flaskless vertical moulding machine. Its direct descendants are today’s sophisticated, flexible and highly-productive DISAMATIC D and C lines. Along with horizontal solutions like the DISA MATCH and DISA FLEX, these advanced green sand technologies ensure tighter tolerances, smoother surfaces, and cleaner castings—helping foundries achieve outstanding quality and efficiency.

Beyond these iconic blue machines, there’s a comprehensive portfolio of mixers, casting coolers, and advanced digital and automation tools. From sand preparation and moulding to aftermarket support and process optimization, DISA continues to deliver the industry’s most complete green sand foundry solution, engineered to work seamlessly together for maximum uptime, productivity, and the lowest cost per casting.

“As one of the world’s leading foundry suppliers, reaching this huge milestone is a testament to DISA’s premium, reliable machines and the trust of partners worldwide,” says Ulla. “We’d like to thank all our employees and customers for making this possible. Here’s to the next chapter of progress!”
