MEVA Formwork Systems is a worldwide producer of formwork systems. Headquartered in Germany under the name MEVA Schalungs-System GmbH, the MEVA group has 40 subsidiaries, plants and logistics centers on 5 continents.
Business
MEVA designs, constructs, produces and markets frame formwork systems for all types of on-site concrete applications in the building industry. MEVA's product portfolio is complemented by the company's services and consulting packages for formwork users.
History
MEVA was founded in 1970 by Gerhard Dingler. The idea of developing a reusable formwork system led to the company's founding and to the development of the first frame-based, panelised formwork system with a facing integrated into a metal frame, which was named the formwork panel. These panels are produced in different sizes and can be freely combined, hence the name modular formwork system. Throughout its history, MEVA developed several innovations, some of which have become standard features in the industry.
Milestones: [1]
- 1971 – MEVA presents the first modular panelised formwork system.
- 1977 – MEVA invents the formwork clamp that connects panels tightly and firmly.
- 1978 – The frame with hollow profiles and grooves is presented. It is lighter than previous frames, supports a higher fresh concrete pressure and is easier to clean as no dirt can enter the closed hollow profiles. [2]
- 1981 – The first crane-independent formwork system for walls and slabs is marketed.
- 1982 – MEVA's Mammut wall formwork system is the first heavy-duty system offering a fresh concrete load capacity of 97 kN/m2.
- 1989 – MEVA develops the aluminium wall formwork system.
- 1992 – The crane-independent MevaDec slab system offers 3 methods for all types of slabs.
- 2000 – MEVA presents the first all-plastic facing and is the first formwork producer to use this kind of facing in all formwork systems. Contrary to wooden facing, the all-plastic facing lasts as long as the panel frame, can be cleaned with high-pressure cleaners and repaired with identical material on the construction site and delivers a consistently high-quality concrete surface. MEVA's all-plastic facing alkus [3] comes with a 7-year long-term warranty that so far has never been claimed. [4]
- 2012 – MEVA's automatic climbing system MAC is used on sites in Europe after several years of use in Australia and the Far East. [5]
- 2016 - MEVA Mammut XT with flexible single and two-sided anchoring without additional attachments [6]
Product and Service Portfolio
MEVA offers standard formwork systems for all types of on-site concrete applications and also designs and produces special formwork and solutions[ buzzword] for special requirements such as irregular building geometries or surfaces without joints. MEVA offers:
