Food industry - standards and quality

Our customers come from every corner of the industry – from the large manufacturers of large complete plants to the small internal maintenance departments in the food companies.

Food companies can benefit from collaboration with Megatrade Beslag, given our specialist knowledge of industrial components and industry standards, and our  strong position in the market - particularly in the areas of:

• Edge strips, sealing strips and rubber profiles
• Standard and custom-made hinges
• Piano hinges also in – acid-resistant stainless steel!
• Levelling feet
• Gas springs - also with food approved oil!
• Magnets
• Hose clamps - also with quick mounting where they are only adjusted once
• Custom-made products, including special plastic products and acid-proof locks and brackets, perfectly suited to your construction and needs

Our range of industrial components and our general product knowledge help manufacturers in the pharmaceutical industry in the design, development and manufacture of their products. So, the ever-increasing demands for compliance with FDA, Bfr and EC standards are not only met – they are met in the best and cheapest way with documentable products and materials for simple approval in your quality department.

We believe that these successful customer relationships and our own in-depth knowledge of products and suppliers can help our customers in the pharmaceutical industry.

Good connections close by

For many years, Megatrade traded mainly with European manufacturers.

For the past 10 years, however, we have benefited greatly from our sister company in China, which is headed by a Danish CEO. This company provides us with easy and direct access to a large number of quality suppliers in Asia. Our colleagues in China can handle special services such as quality control (prior to shipment to Europe), warehousing facilities and direct communication with the production companies.

Megatrade’s wholesale customers gain access to our many suppliers in both Europe and Asia. This means that Megatrade can find the right supplier, which, with the amounts requested, can deliver the right product at a good price.

That means that cooperation with us provides many of our customers with great competitive advantages.

A collaboration in the pipeline?

Megatrade is happy to help find alternative products and solutions - perhaps serve as a supplier of new products.

Whether you are a buyer, designer or development engineer, contact Megatrade with your enquiry. We would love to help you and see if we can make a difference.

We generally start with a discussion about the product, use and environment. It really helps if you have a working drawing, target price and expected quantity, but if this is not the case, we will still be more than happy to discuss your needs and wishes.

Several of our customers find it difficult to identify suppliers in Asia/China, so they come to us for help.

Cases

Megatrade has many customers in the food industry who have entered into a fruitful collaboration with us:

One customer wanted a quality supplier for clamping profiles in FDA-approved quality for their meat processing machines. They only needed 150 metres per year, as it was a new product area for the customer. But Megatrade could solve the task as we had a long-term collaboration with a manufacturer who could also produce these profiles.

4 years later, the profile is still used – albeit in larger quantities than initially. And now, among other things, we also supply acid-resistant, EHEDG-approved locking systems to the customer.

Another customer needed stainless steel drawer slides at a reasonable price.

They contacted Megatrade who already supplied them with locks, gas springs and sealing strips and we offered a model that exceeded their specifications for function and strength - and yet was cheaper than their target price.

Megatrade still supplies all these products despite the fact that production has moved far away from Denmark.

We aim at long and evolving collaboration

We aim at strategic collaboration, which will amount to good business for both parties. The result is more satisfaction for customers. We are not fixed in specific ways of trading or limited by specific items, and we are always ready for a talk about what problems we can solve for you.
