About us

MIXACO Dr. Herfeld GmbH & Co. KG is one of the world's leading manufacturers of innovative mixing systems for a wide range of applications and industries. With over 60 years of experience, technical pioneering spirit, and a genuine passion for mixing. As an independent, family-run company headquartered in Neuenrade, Germany, we stand for continuity, reliability, and the highest level of engineering expertise.

Our international presence is strategically strengthened by our own subsidiaries: With MIXACO Machinery Technology (Changzhou) Co., Ltd. in China and MIXACO USA LLC based in Greer, South Carolina, we are close to our markets and customers. Global, powerful, and service-oriented. This is how we combine German engineering quality with global proximity and local expertise.

In 2024, MIXACO has further expanded its presence in Asia by establishing a modern manufacturing facility in Changzhou, China. Through MIXACO Machinery Technology (Changzhou) Co., Ltd., MIXACO mixers are now manufactured locally for the Asian market. All equipment is produced strictly according to the same designs, engineering standards, manufacturing processes, and quality assurance systems as at our German headquarters, ensuring German-quality performance “Made in China.” This local manufacturing strategy enables significantly shorter delivery times and faster service response, providing Asian customers with efficient, reliable, and market-oriented mixing solutions.

A large number of national and international patents underscore our innovative strength. We are recognized as a technology leader in industries such as powder coatings, masterbatch, compounding, and the plastics industry as a whole, as well as in the PVC/WPC, rubber, chemical, animal feed, and food industries. With the container mixer we developed, we have revolutionized industrial mixing technology in the long term.

More than 8,000 MIXACO mixers installed worldwide stand for the highest quality “Made in Germany” and guarantee maximum efficiency, reproducibility, and cost-effectiveness in our customers' production processes.

Our state-of-the-art test centers in Neuenrade, Germany, and Greer, South Carolina, USA, give us a particular competitive advantage. Here, we work with our customers to test even the most complex mixing tasks under realistic conditions and optimize their design.The test center of the Changzhou factory is also expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2025, and soon customers will be able to conduct tests at the Changzhou factory.

Complemented by a global sales and service network with regional subsidiaries and representative offices, we have competent contacts almost everywhere in the world. Our focus is on open, cooperative partnership, short decision-making paths, and transparent processes.

Behind the success of the MIXACO brand is a dedicated, international team of experienced specialists and young talents.

We are passionate mechanical engineers and carry “mixing” not only in our name, but in each of our solutions.

Products & Services

Machines and Equipment for Pre-Processing and Recycling
Other Machinery and Plant for Processing

We have been setting standards in mixing technology for decades. We not only invented the first container mixer. With innovative products such as the i4 container mixer or the laboratory heating mixer, we continue to set new standards in mixing technology. Our team is united by a fascination for turning technical challenges into efficient machine solutions. Thanks to flat hierarchies and short decision-making paths, we are always able to react quickly and flexibly to individual requirements.

Container Mixer Multitool™

The perfect mixer for temperature-sensitive raw materials. Different material flows increase the temperature by only one tenth compared to conventional mixers. A special arrangement of the mixing tools prevents the materials from heating up and sticking to the tools, the mixing head and the container.
