Meech shows sustained growth in key regions
In a time when a number of European companies face considerable economic challenges, Meech
International shows no signs of declining growth thanks to a consistently positive performance
across all its regions worldwide. With a strong rise in sales over the past year and recent successes
at Emballage ‘14 and Labelexpo Americas ’14, the British company is fast establishing itself as a key
player in the static elimination sector.
Adam Battrick, Meech Sales Director commented on the company’s approach to business: “Meech
does not focus exclusively its efforts on the UK and Europe, but also looks into new markets abroad
on a frequent basis, with the aim to establish a global presence. China has already proven to be a
profitable region and Latin America is fast revealing itself as a growing market worth investing in. It
is thanks to this far-reaching vision that Meech has become one of the world’s leading developers
and manufacturers of static control and web-cleaning systems.”
Helping Meech stay competitive are its Hyperion static control series of pulsed DC bars, as well as its
unique web-cleaning range, which comprises four separate technologies for delivering high quality
contact and non-contact cleaning. Both ranges have attracted significant attention from a wide
variety of sectors, most recently at Emballage and Labelexpo Americas, where the new Distance
Sensor and Feedback System used with the Hyperion range were displayed.
The product ranges have performed particularly well with OEMs and end customers in the German
market, as attested by a number of recent purchases of web cleaners and 24V static control systems
in the region. With an increasing number of new business opportunities arising in Western Europe,
the Meech brand is stronger than ever and shows no signs of losing its competitive edge.
Meech’s development has not been restricted solely to its product ranges. In the past year, the
company has also expanded and reorganised its production areas by leasing an additional building
located close to its head office in Oxfordshire, UK. The 4000 sq. feet property is now the main
production facility for web-cleaners, IonRinse and JetStream product ranges, while also housing
research, development and engineering for all Meech systems, including the static control and
Meech Air Technology (MAT) series.

“By investing heavily in our premises and personnel, we are able to introduce more new products to
the market while also providing the high level of service our clients have come to expect from the
Meech brand,” explains Adam. “We are a company that is well represented abroad and we intend to
maintain this image by staying competitive and investing in the most promising markets, whether it
is China and India or South Africa and South America.”
