ABOUT MEPCA
MEPCA is a monthly magazine not only for engineers, production management and decision-makers in manufacturing and processing but is also aimed at professionals working in the many sectors that support those industries. We highlight issues and solutions in manufacturing and processing – from the arrival of raw materials at a plant right through to transport of finished products. Our remit is to cover the latest equipment, technology and developments in manufacturing/processing and support functions, plus company news, trade association comment and information about exhibitions and conferences around the world. Manufacturing, engineering, fluid and gas handling, process control and automation, quality, recruitment and training are just some of the subjects featured in MEPCA each month. In the 21st century, sustainability and environmental impact are key concerns so MEPCA also spotlights ‘green’ products, technology and policies as they apply to manufacturing and processing. We also look at the sustainability sector in its own right, including renewable energy sources like solar, wind, water, geothermal and bio.
