2 At Modern Equipment Inc. we design, manufacture and install a system knowing we are going to see it for a long time.

3 We have built our company around an approach of creating single source systems that are built for life and relationships that last longer. At the heart of this is the belief that a system must be designed, installed and maintained by a single source. For over 30 years, MEI has been designing, installing and maintaining equipment primarily in the South, as well as Nationally and Internationally. Today we service companies we designed equipment for in 1974.

6 We install all our own equipment, unlike most national firms. Our crews have been together for a long time. They understand our engineering approach, which makes bringing your equipment on-line reliable and quick. Because we are primarily regional, we give our employees the advantage of less travel, which means lower turnover and more experienced staff on your installation. Your staff is trained and has a relationship for maintenance. Our staff builds a relationship with your engineering and maintenance staff so that a smooth hand-off takes place and there is a clear level of support available. Our prime focus is markets we can readily service. This allows us to assure you, our customer, that we will provide on-going service, prevention maintenance contracts and safety inspections on a regular basis. Your savings in bulk material handling come over time. We want to be available to assure those savings.

7 Your production line is up and running a higher percentage of the time. When you plan on maintaining the equipment it has an impact on the engineering and quality of the materials selected. We design systems to be value priced within the original budget. The natural outcome is a system that is easily maintained and stays operational. Your cost related to down time and not coming on-line efficiently can represent 25% of the overall cost. We guarantee on time start up and have equipment down time that is in the top 1% of the industry. Your investment stretches long past its depreciated life. Product designed to last and that is properly maintained means you do not have to make additional investments in replacement equipment. The longer the life of your equipment, the greater your return on investment.

8 We encourage you to call any of them and ask their opinion of us, particularly ask if they felt we saved them money on the life of their equipment.

10 Founding Principals In 1974, George Weissenberger founded MEI to provide installation and system preventative maintenance service to companies using bulk storage and pneumatic conveying in a variety of industries. The result George saw was that many of his customers were experiencing a high level of system failure that stemmed from systems not designed to be maintained. Joined by his son Mark, a mechanical engineer, they began developing systems engineered for life. We design systems engineered for life Range of Products Today Modern Equipment Incorporated (MEI) is a major participant in the material handling industry. Our systems have the highest non-failure rate in the industry. The company designs and installs pneumatic conveying, bulk storage, and batching control systems for the textile, plastic and baking industries, as well as others. Many of our projects include system retrofits, upgrades, and interfaces with material handling equipment, regardless of original supplier or manufacturer.

11 Range of Services MEI provides preventative maintenance programs, safety inspections and 24-hour emergency service to our clients. Our local service crews are regularly dispersed between Eastern Alabama and Southern Virginia, as well as periodic site visits throughout the Midwest, Texas and Mexico. We have designed systems for installation or designed and installed equipment at locations in China, Mexico, the Caribbean, Canada and throughout the United States. National & International Systems Provider MEI also supplies equipment and installs projects nationally and internationally. We deliver the same commitment to product for life that we do on the systems we design, install and service in the Southeast. We will work directly with your engineering, maintenance groups and local or regional third party installation providers to assure long term support.
