George Mouskis was a pioneer of the European Aluminium Industry. He had a humble background, however he was a man with a passion for learning and quickly realized aluminium’s potential as a new building material, at time when the metal was relatively unheard of. He founded MUSKITA from a small company he established with 10 employees that made aluminium structures in Cyprus.

MUSKITA launches the first Anodizing Plant on the island providing more control over product quality. The anodized aluminium produced in 1965 can still be found over 50 years later on local buildings virtually untouched by time.

MUSKITA completes its factory headquarters at Limassol Industrial Estates in Cyprus, where it can be found today.

As a consequence of its excellence in production, MUSKITA expands its activities to extrusion and establishes itself as an international systems house. MUSKITA obtains flexibility, agility and superior capabilities to customize profiles to its clientele’s needs. MUSKITA becomes a founding member of the Aluminium Association of Greece.

MUSKITA wins the Ministry of Commerce, Industry & Tourism Award and the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce & Industry award, as well as the European Union Excellence Award (which MUSKITA later receives again in 2004).

MUSKITA enters the 21st century by opening its subsidiary company Universal Components Ltd in the U.K. setting strong foundations in Northern Europe and enabling continuous expansion of activities across the continent.

MUSKITA establishes the Accessories department, enabling the company to partner with leaders in their field to develop, produce and import the latest accessories and complementary systems in Cyprus.

Today MUSKITA is one of the most technologically advanced firms in its industry worldwide. MUSKITA’s systems have been tested and certified to withstand the severe rain and snow of Northern Europe, the pounding cyclones of the Indian Ocean and the searing heat of the Middle East. MUSKITA products are used internationally, across multiple sectors ranging from aviation to agriculture, which is a testament to the cutting-edge technology, engineering, quality and skilled workforce that have been paramount to the company’s current and future success.
