Materials Handling Equipment Co., Inc. / Decker International, Inc.
About
The original Materials Handling Equipment Company (MHE) was formed in the 1920’s in Chicago, Illinois to support the demands of expanding industries. New continuous-process techniques generated the need for high quality, custom-built bulk handling equipment. MHE became one of the leaders in this market and pioneered many of the features used today for high temperature, high abrasion, and corrosive applications. In addition to being one of the original founding members of the Conveyors Equipment Manufacturers Association (CEMA), many within MHE's engineering staff were considered as material handling experts and helped develop several standards in screw conveyors and bucket elevators.
In the 1930’s, MHE expanded its product line to focus on specific Industry needs. Understanding the severe conditions that Cement Producers demanded, MHE developed one of the original Cement Mill Class Bucket Elevators, Drag Conveyors, and Screw Conveyors. Ash and coal handling at Power Plants required special conveyors for hot, abrasive, and corrosive applications.
The next 3 decades found MHE expanding and increasing their market share and product breadth. Apron Conveyors and an array of specially designed conveyors for the most severe operating conditions were added to the company's capabilities. In the mid 70’s, Jervis B. Webb Company purchased MHE and moved the operations to Marietta, Georgia.
Today the company's sales office remains in Marietta and continues its proud 78-year heritage. New pricing options are available which will provide its long-term customers and new customers an opportunity to purchase the same high quality products at extremely competitive rates.
The new MHE has the broadest line of bulk material handling equipment of any other manufacturer.
The logical choice for material handling equipment is the company with the same name -- MHE. |
