Mirka Deos 663 for corner sanding of window and door panels.

The growing preference for wooden homes – especially in heritage-rich regions such as Kerala and Himachal Pradesh – aligns with Mirka’s values of sustainability and innovation. Wood, as a renewable material, complements India’s shift toward green construction.

Its thermal efficiency helps reduce energy costs in India’s diverse climate. When engineered and finished properly, wooden structures become resilient against humidity, pests, UV rays, and even fire – especially when paired with Mirka’s advanced dust-free sanding systems and protective coatings.

While wood’s aesthetic warmth is timeless, ensuring long-term durability requires meticulous surface preparation. This is where Mirka’s solutions stand out. By enabling consistent surface quality, Mirka ensures wooden homes retain both structural strength and visual appeal over time.

Tools optimised for engineered wood products such as CLT (cross-laminated timber) and glulam streamline construction, reduce waste, and boost structural performance.

At the core of this evolution is surface integrity. In India’s harsh environment, only well-prepared and treated surfaces endure. Mirka’s systems guarantee optimal adhesion of coatings, translating into longer-lasting and lower-maintenance structures.

Precision, performance

India’s door manufacturing sector is embracing engineered wood – and for good reasons. Its dimensional stability, resistance to warping, and eco-efficiency make it ideal for Indian conditions. Mirka supports this transition with precision tools tailored for these materials.

The finishing of a door’s surface determines its durability, aesthetics and resistance to environmental stress. Mirka offers complete solutions for all types of finishes – laminates, veneers, paints, varnishes and polyurethanes. Dust-free sanding systems ensure clean, smooth surfaces for perfect finish adhesion and extended lifespan.

Edge protection is just as critical. Mirka’s fine-grit abrasives and precision tools prevent water ingress and surface flaws, ensuring structural integrity. Even the best engineered core will fail if the surface preparation is inadequate.

Beyond surface aesthetics, Mirka recognises the role of precision hardware fitting. A well-finished door enhances the performance and tactile experience of locks, handles, and hinges. The ‘fit and finish’ influences both perception and functionality – which is why Mirka’s solutions are engineered to deliver superior results at every stage of production.

Turnkey solutions

Automation is revolutionising door and wood component production. For Mirka, it is not just about efficiency, it is about repeatable quality, safety and scalability. Our robotic sanding and polishing systems – such as Mirka Aios, Airos and Airop – are equipped with intelligent RPM control, offering unmatched consistency.

Compact and IP66-rated, these systems integrate easily with robot arms across production floors. The Aios 353CV is designed for woodworking applications that demand precision in corners and edges.

Beyond consistency, automation enhances workplace safety. Robotic solutions take over repetitive and high-risk tasks, reducing injury potential and fatigue while improving throughput. Economically, this minimizes material wastage and lowers long-term costs: a win-win for manufacturers.

Our collaborations with large-scale producers demonstrate how automation ensures consistent quality while addressing labor shortages and skill limitations. As Indian door manufacturers eye global markets, automation is not optional; it is imperative. Mirka’s robotic tools help bridge the gap, setting new standards for productivity and global competitiveness.

Mirka revolution

Since 1990, Mirka has pioneered dust-free sanding, a game-changing concept for health, efficiency and finish quality. Its Abranet net abrasives, ergonomic tools like Deros II, Deos II, Leros, Deros RS and powerful Dexos extractors form a comprehensive ecosystem that protects workers and maximizes output.

Dust generated during the sanding is hazardous. Mirka’s HEPA-filtered extractors remove 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3µm. A standout case is MAS Furniture in Mysuru, where airborne dust fell from 35 kg per week to virtually zero after adopting Mirka’s system.

Dust-free sanding also saves time and money. Less dust means less abrasive clogging; longer tool and abrasive life; minimal cleanup; and consistent, contaminant-free surface finishes.

Whether it is a heritage-inspired wooden home or a precision-engineered door, Mirka empowers professionals to achieve excellence in cleaner, safer and smarter ways. Together, Mirka is shaping a future where craftsmanship meets innovation, and every surface tells a story of durability, beauty and care for the planet.
