We think that everyone should do their part for the world. We do our part by helping the world turn. The small parts we make keep machines around the world moving. For more than 40 years, we have manufactured components for agricultural machines, forest harvesters, ships, papermaking machines and door systems out of different metal and plastic materials. Components made by us are used in almost every area of industry.
Our work for a functional world continues in our modern CNC machinery around the year.
We specialise in the production of large series but can also produce smaller series and make prototypes. Reliability and efficiency are at the core of our services. We always do what is promised and guarantee a competitive price-quality ratio. We adhere to the promised delivery times and respect our customers’ work, wishes and needs. We are an adaptable, resourceful and responsible partner for our customers. Our operations also acknowledge environmental matters, and we continuously want to develop in this area. These basic principles also apply to our supply chains.
Our product selection covers hundreds of different components. Rotating parts such as shafts, bushings, pins, spindles and valves are some of the typical products we manufacture. Modern multiaxis turning lathes make it possible to make also very complex parts.
We can also offer a storing service where you can conveniently order products using the call-out service to support our efficient subcontractor machining.
High-quality machines combined with numerous years of experience and innovation guarantee that we can manufacture high-quality products that fulfil all modern requirements within the agreed timeframe.
We are a privately owned group consisting of four machine shops, serving customers in, among other areas, the environmental and forest industries. Joensuun CNC-Machining Oy has been part of the group since 2021. As our operations have grown, we have invested more systematically in supplier network management and partner selection. Our key criteria when choosing partners are delivery reliability, quality, flexibility, and fast response and lead times. In addition, responsibility and environmental requirements have become increasingly important to us.
Kivi became our partner in 2023 through a concrete business need. We were looking for a supplier for a product we could not manufacture in-house, and similar expertise was not available locally. After evaluating several suppliers, Kivi quickly stood out as a competitive option for responsiveness, scheduling, and pricing. We had no prior experience with Kivi, but the first impression was very positive.
The cooperation began on a smaller scale but has since expanded. Based on our positive experience, Kivi has been approved as a supplier at the EFM Group level, not only for the Joensuu unit. Currently, we source approximately twenty different product items from Kivi. The entire supply chain has operated reliably throughout the process, from order to delivery. The cooperation has generated exclusively positive feedback, including from the end customer, and there have been no issues or complaints during our shared history.
The collaboration has been flexible and smooth. In situations with tight schedules, Kivi has been able to respond quickly and support delivery reliability. We have also received fast and comprehensive answers to questions related to environmental reporting and carbon footprint calculations. We appreciate that Kivi’s pricing has remained stable, even as prices have increased significantly in many parts of the market.
We see Kivi’s core strengths as high-quality production of large series. Looking ahead, we also expect even closer technical development and joint problem-solving – a strong and growing partnership. Kivi responds reliably in all matters, and we can confidently recommend them to others.

We are a wholesaler and logistics centre for fastening solutions, and we have been serving our customers since 1976. Reliability of delivery and fast problem-solving are the foundation of our business. For this reason, we expect our subcontracting partners to demonstrate, above all, quick responsiveness, competitive pricing, and proven quality.
We were introduced to Kivi through a recommendation from Valtra. From the very beginning of our cooperation, it became clear that their quality meets even the most demanding standards. If Valtra uses Kivi as a subcontractor, we know the quality is assured. We rely on Kivi especially for demanding machined components and complex solutions. They also serve as an important backup partner when unexpected challenges arise in the supply chain – a true ace up our sleeve when needed.
One of the most concrete examples of the value of our cooperation was a bearing bolt project that helped us retain a major customer. Although the solution required investment, it resolved a critical situation and delivered clear value to our business.
We see our cooperation with Kivi as genuinely mutual, with a high level of trust on both sides. Everything that has been promised has been delivered. So far, we have had nothing negative to say, and hopefully never will. We also supply products to Kivi in return, making the partnership truly two-way.
