Our story: The DANMIL journey from local roots to global impact
It all began in 1986, when three Danish entrepreneurs – Jørgen Lindh, Frank Schiessl, and Ole C. Jensen – decided to take a bold step. With a shared vision and a deep understanding of filtration technologies, they founded DANMIL. What started as a small distributor focused on filtration products quickly grew into something much greater. By 1992, DANMIL was already supplying filtration products to major pharmaceutical players like Novo Nordisk and Novozymes. This marked a turning point. The demand for high-quality, reliable filtration solutions was growing, and DANMIL was ready to meet it.
In 1994, the company began designing and developing its own casting moulds, laying the foundation for a new era of innovation and independence. When Michael Lindh joined the company in 1992, he brought a strategic vision focused on the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food & beverage industries – sectors where precision and compliance are essential.
In 2008, DANMIL moved to its current facility in Greve, Denmark. From the beginning, it was clear that the company needed to work closely with Novo Nordisk Engineering to build a best-in-class cleanroom facility. The goal was to follow the latest guidelines and instructions while also planning for future growth. Land was secured for expansion, and long-term contracts were signed with key customers. Within 18 months, DANMIL had completed the DRS and VMP, and today, its cleanroom remains one of the cleanest in the filter cartridge manufacturing industry.
In 2014, DANMIL received the Greve Business Award, and in 2016, a majority stake was acquired by the AEB Group to support international growth. The company’s resilience was tested in 2019 during the COVID-19 pandemic, but DANMIL rose to the challenge, delivering critical filtration products ahead of competitors while continuing to invest in production improvements.
In August 2024, DANMIL joined the Atlas Copco Group, becoming part of the Medical Gas Solutions division. This strategic move opened new doors for global collaboration and innovation, while preserving the company’s legacy of quality and customer focus.
Today, DANMIL’s mission is clear: to deliver customized, high-performance filtration solutions that meet the most demanding industry standards. The company’s core functions include R&D, production, quality assurance, and customer support – all working together to ensure excellence from concept to delivery. Looking ahead, DANMIL is investing in people, processes, and production to increase capacity and efficiency. The vision is to grow sustainably while continuing to serve customers with the same dedication and flexibility that have defined the company for nearly four decades.
And the story is far from over…Looking ahead, DANMIL will continue to expand capabilities, invest in innovation, and strengthen partnerships worldwide. Our focus remains on delivering filtration solutions that protect processes, products, and people, now and for the future.
