Who is Meiko

If intelligent dishwashers had a name, it would most certainly be Meiko. There’s a reason why many experts choose this brand for their commercial dishwashing applications as the company is a true leader in innovative warewashing equipment. Backed by years of research and experience, Meiko specialises in every aspect of warewashing possible. Whether it be under-counter dishwashers for household use or hood-type dishwashers for commercial applications, the company has a diverse range of products that are brimming with technology.

Introduction

Meiko is a warewashing manufacturer that is owned by a foundation launched by Oskar and Rosel Meier, one of the early founders of the company. The guidelines they wrote are the basis for how the company acts which, as they claim, is the reason why they reinvest 85% of their profits for the wellbeing of the company and its people.

They’ve established a value-oriented culture that’s based on responsibility and long-term success, allowing them to make meaningful and innovative changes to the warewashing market. It’s the way Meiko always has been, and will always be; driving technological advancements to their machines in hopes of a better warewashing experience.

During the 1960s, Oskar Meier and his wife Rosel contemplated the company’s future. They wanted to ensure MEIKO was free of personal interests, potential inheritance issues and random investors. They believed that the company was more than just a business institution, but a social one with values to keep and integrity to uphold. Protecting the jobs, the idea, and reputation became the centre of MEIKO’s business philosophy. In a world where change is constant, it is good to know that some things remain the same.

Meiko’s crystal clear idea

The methods of warewashing haven’t changed since we’ve learned how to clean dishes. But what has changed is the innovation behind the equipment that does the cleaning. Meiko’s technology not only guarantees sparkling dishes but also a dishwasher that runs smoothly and efficiently. How do they achieve this? By using their reverse osmosis technology called Gio MODULE.

What this does is demineralise your wash water and make it exceptionally clean. It gets rid of all the salt or deposits that usually end up on the glasses so you can have spotless glasses every time. Meiko’s dishwashers also use an efficient heat recovery system that dries the glasses almost instantly. If you operate a pub and you need a quick turnaround time, Meiko’s warewashing equipment will get the job done.

But that’s not the only thing that their machines have going for them. Waste management is a glaring issue in the modern kitchen and MEIKO’s machines have a clever solution to address them. Clean disposal, zero food wastage, and continuous recycling are all factors that the company considered to make the environment a much cleaner place.

MEIKO uses a pump/vacuum system to collect food waste and stores it in a special tank. When the time comes to dispose of them, the food waste is sent to a biogas plant. Considering that food waste is a valuable raw material, why not take advantage of it? MEIKO GREEN’s BioMaster and WasteStar CC systems have ushered in a new market for greener warewashing solutions that can be easily integrated into any kitchen’s logistics. This means no more waste bins and buckets, thus helping your cooking space become cleaner and more hygienic.

The company’s values

A company is shaped by its values and for MEIKO, they hold theirs to a high standard. They insist on creating quality and innovative products that reinforce relationships outside the company. It’s about connecting with their consumers in a way that no other company has made before and it’s all thanks to their company culture.

When they say clean warewashing solutions, they’re not just talking about the technology in their machines. They’re also indicating how they communicate with their customers. Being transparent with their audience allows for clear customer-employee relationships which is a recipe for success. MEIKO’s values are their beacon of light and they all share the same visions from CEO right down to the trainee. 

Uncompromised quality

When it comes to cleaning dishes, you want a warewashing equipment that’s built to last. MEIKO is a leader not just in innovation, but in mechanical engineering and design as well. As a company that’s active in 50 countries around the world, MEIKO knows how to make robust and timeless machines.

That’s why they use stainless steel as their preferred material for their warewashing equipment, disinfection, waste treatment, and cleaning technologies because of its corrosion resistance, durability, and strength. Each machine is carefully assembled by a strict quality control team to ensure only the best reach the consumer’s kitchen. Passing on the knowledge from their founders, MEIKO’s production techniques are still carried out by hand. This shows where their focus lies and its making warewashing equipment with uncompromised quality.

Today, MEIKO is continuously finding new ways to enhance the warewashing experience and build upon their reputation as a leader in dishwashing solutions. Built on a foundation of trust and transparency, it’s no surprise that the company has enjoyed decades of success and will continue to do so in the future.
