Information/History:
H.F. MEYER – more than 150 years
(Company's history)
| The H.F. MEYER Company has been established at Neustadt/Holstein in
the year 1846. Today the family business will be managed by the 5th generation,
the 6th is still preparing itself to take over the leadership. The manufacturing of machines has begun in the year 1889. Among manufacturing, sale and service of agricultural machines and devices, a lot of home-technology installations |
 |
| as well as sale and service for motor vehicles has been
made. After the year 1945 was extended to a machine plant for serialized production of agricultural machines. Also the make of packaging-test devices and industrial conveying systems has been enlarged by intensifying the equipment of breweries as well as food- and packaging industries. |
|
 |
The existing department of home-installation has been upgraded to an efficient home-technology department. The production of agricultural machines was stopped in the year 1966. Since August 1973 the current General Manager, Dipl.-Ing. K. Robert Meyer, and his |
| team develops continuously new machinery products for several industrial branches, e.g. modern high-performance conveying systems and packing machines. | |
| By a continuous extension of the company and the successful tough industrial use of the new products, the company succeeded in opening up new markets and reserving a lasting place in the international competition. The export of MEYER-products began in the year 1985 and nowadays it will be done worldwide directly or by re-sellers |  |
| and plant manufacturers. By the new products and the expansion of marketing, MEYER became consequently an equipper of such distinguished industries like e.g. breweries, beverages, food, cosmetics, hygiene, pharmacy, chemistry, mineral oil, packagings and tires. | |
 |
To meet the service requirements of the industrial customers, MEYER upgraded its service- and assembly department up to a professional efficient team, which will do justice to the international demands. The continuous enlargement of the design-department in the eighties has led to new chances for |
| managing bigger projects in plant-engineering. The move to the new building at the business area Neustadt i.H. in the year 1992 was just the first step of the necessary company expansion, which has been finished by the purchase of a second adjacent building in the year 2000. | |
Since 1996 MEYER has an internal quality-management system according to current international standards.
