About us
MiTek is a construction technology leader on a mission to advance the adoption of offsite construction. MiTek exists to transform communities through more efficient and sustainable building methods. In 1955, MiTek changed residential construction with the invention of the Gang-Nail plate, providing an affordable and scalable way to manufacture wood trusses. Today, MiTek serves residential and commercial customers delivering software, services, engineered products, and automated solutions that optimise a more integrated Design-Make-Build™ approach to construction. By enabling upfront collaboration across the value chain, including architects, engineers, builders, component manufacturers, and more, we create a single source of truth that guides each design decision and unlocks the power of offsite construction. With more than 6,000 team members worldwide, MiTek enables the delivery of exceptionally streamlined builds, offering higher quality, increased speed, less waste, and more value, and in turn, transforming how the world builds. As a Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK-A, NYSE: BRK-B) company since 2001, MiTek has a record of continuous growth and innovation.

Our Design-Make-Build methodology is more than a process—it’s a movement towards smarter, more sustainable building practices. By shifting decisions from the physical to the virtual realm, we can reduce waste and unlock greater value. This isn’t just the future of construction; it’s the present. At its core, Design-Make-Build is about bringing people and technology together. It’s a collaborative effort that unites designers, architects, engineers, and builders. This unified approach not only increases efficiency but also fosters innovation. It opens up new possibilities for what can be achieved in construction, paving the way for more sustainable and cost-effective building practices. #MMC #offsite #PosiJoist #timberengineering #DesignOptimisation

Donaldson Timber Engineering (DTE), part of the Donaldson Family of companies got where it is today with strong family values and investment in its people. Retaining the family business feeling after over 30 years of successful national expansion isn’t easy, but it’s vital. It’s a philosophy that runs through their whole operation. It was a pleasure to interview Karol to understand more about his journey to branch manager of DTE Exeter. He’s a big fan of Posi-Joist, and the High Speed Posi Press (HSPP) which develops and produces high-quality Posi-Joists. The machine is impressive says Karol “Now we estimate the press can deliver up to 1,800 metres of Posi-Joist in a single shift, which is a vast amount, and a massive production capacity increase for us”. #PosiJoist #automation #timberengineering #MMC #offsiteconstruction

Timber, with its low embodied carbon, sequesters carbon for decades, making it a linchpin in achieving Net Zero and meeting future regulatory energy efficiency standards. For MiTek, promoting innovation and high-performing timber systems is central to our mission of equipping the industry to design, make, and build better. Our Posi-Joist system and PAMIR design software exemplify the tools enabling trades to collaborate effectively, paving the way for the next generation of timber-constructed homes. https://lnkd.in/eRZWfNa8

In our latest video we meet Karol Radziejowski, Branch Manager at Donaldson Timber Engineering's Exeter branch. The relationship between MiTek and DTE began 24 years ago. The software, machinery and Posi systems have been mainstays of their work since the start, helping DTE design, manufacture and deliver. Having people like Karol to talk to is invaluable. He started using our products as a frontline operative and still brings that hands-on perspective to his management work. He’s a big advocate for Posi-Joist so it was no surprise when he had the MiTek HSPP (High Speed Posi Press) installed at the Exeter facility. #PosiJoist #automation #software #UKconstruction #TimberEngineering #optimisation

The latest MiTek Mark 1 Easyjig Press with lasers has recently been installed at Crendon Timber Engineering Ltd, Dorchester, Dorset. Dave Thomas, Commercial Leader, EMEA Automation, MiTek, says: “The industry is moving towards automation for presses and this Mark 1 Easyjig Press at Crendon shows exactly what is possible. We have introduced newer software onto this press that will be fed across the wider group.” The trusses made on the Mark 1 will be designed with MiTek software, with output files to instruct the tables and the lasers. These are fully integrated software solutions that make the Mark 1 Easyjig Press the most up-to-date press on the market in the UK. For Crendon, it is an investment for the future – a 38-metre press, with two gantries, that new operators into the manufacturing process will be trained on. Ed Kirk, Crendon Operations, Innovation and Sustainability Director, says: “We’ve worked with the team at MiTek for many years. Its software, products and services have been integral to our journey and growth.” https://lnkd.in/eZq6ftNA #TimberEngineering #MiTek #MiTekmachinery #UKbuilding #UKhousebuilding #sustainability #Mark1Easyjig
