MIG/MAG welders bring steel and aluminium structures to life — from equipment manufacturing to shipbuilding, from trailer production to machine building. Using gas-shielded arc welding (135/136/138), you produce strong, repeatable welds to NEN-EN-ISO 9606. In Weert you're close to manufacturing, food and logistics. FlexHero places skilled workers here every day — mainly from other EU countries — with housing in the region and transport to the workplace.
