The Materials Handling Engineers Association was formed to support the technical and commercial interests of UK and overseas companies supplying and using bulk handling equipment.

As a collective group of working professionals, the MHEA works on a non-profit basis, entirely in the interest of its members and the industry as a whole.

Affiliated Partners of the Association enjoy preferred supplier status and authorised use of the MHEA Affiliated Partner logo. They are part of a professionally diverse network that also provides access to a wealth of business-enhancing resources; industry-level promotion; networking opportunities; representation at events and conferences; knowledge sharing and best practice; education and professional development.

MHEA Affiliated Partnership status provides industry suppliers with a recognised mark of quality-managed services.
