Delva's production operations started in 2019. The business idea sprouted from founder Markku Lindqvist's master's thesis focused on additive manufacturing and has since developed and matured from the desire to renew the industry and do things better.

The world is changing and one of the key goals of industry is to reduce its carbon footprint. 3D printing brings a resource-efficient and needs-driven way of working that implements the principles of the circular economy. Efforts to reduce carbon footprints benefit significantly from the energy-efficient solutions enabled by printing. In addition, the uncertainties of supply chains have been widely recognized and additive manufacturing is seen as an opportunity to increase their stability and sustainability.

In this rapidly changing world, Delva is paving the way and lowering the threshold for companies to do things better, with less and smarter. It is an experienced metal 3D printing expert and partner for industry, and this is also supported by the strong engineering and steel industry background of its personnel. Delva is focused on metal printing and offers the widest selection of materials in the country. With cutting-edge machines and equipment and deep expertise, Delva implements innovative solutions with its customers, providing the support the customer needs at any given time. A diverse ecosystem strengthens the range of post-processing services and supports Delva's active customer-oriented research and development work.

Since the start of production operations, Delva has doubled its turnover annually and will continue the same growth rate this year, with a turnover target of 800 thousand euros. EBITDA is positive and the company anticipates a breakeven result.
