Specialist subcontractor Mekall produces a variety of panels, labels and graphic overlays for one of the world’s leading metrology specialists.
Bowers Group manufactures a wide range of precision measuring instruments, including its range of XT digital bore gauges.
As part of the Spear and Jackson group, Bowers Group has worked with specialist engineering subcontractor Mekall for the past 20 years. The Glasgow-based company supplies a wide range of labels for various products within the Bowers Group portfolio.
A senior member of the Bowers Group design team said: "The look of the instrument is intrinsic to the quality, therefore labelling is an important part of the overall product design. We work with Mekall because they provide consistently good quality products at competitive prices, and they always deliver on time. Moreover, they always listen carefully to our requirements and come up with a label which meets the specification exactly.
"I would say a key benefit of working with Mekall is care and attention to detail. The labels must fit exactly into the product mouldings therefore precision cutting is vital. Mekall has invested in specialist equipment which cuts the label to the finest tolerances, so the fit is perfect."
Mekall, part of the Rainbow Technology Systems group of companies, is a precision engineering subcontractor with a particular focus in membrane switch panels, graphic overlays, fascia panels, and labels.
David Westwood, sales and marketing manager at Rainbow Technology Systems, said: "Mekall continues to build on its reputation gained over 25 years for consistently meeting quality and delivery expectations, which are fundamental prerequisites for survival and growth in a competitive market. We continue to manufacture all products in-house in the UK and are currently expanding our product offering to include screen-printing for Biosensor technology, fine-line printed electronics and LEDs."
He added: We continue to make substantial investments in technology and skilled personnel throughout all areas of the business to aid our capability and capacity, and we are actively forming partnerships with like-minded companies both nationally and offshore thus ensuring we are at the forefront of modern subcontract manufacturing. Our mission will always be the provision of superb quality and delivery and value at highly competitive prices.
