Since its establishment, MEYCO has been at the forefront of many major developments in coal and hard rock mining, as well as civil underground construction and tunnelling.

Needless to say, one of the keys to the company’s outstanding global success and growth lies in its “total solutions” approach to business.

This is particularly evident when it comes to the company’s wide range of specialist mining solutions.

BASF knows that creating a safe mining environment for efficient production is an absolute necessity for any mine operator.

With today’s vast array of increasingly sophisticated equipment, ground control techniques and materials, BASF continues to support mining partnerships by developing many of the technological advancements both in products and equipment that directly enhance safety and improve production in the mine environment.

Furthermore, our experienced mining team assists companies with material logistics and applications knowledge underground

During mining operations, many important processes are carried out, such as ground support, which safely secures the excavated area.

MEYCO’s experienced, service-minded technicians are capable of solving a wide range of problems safely and cost-effectively, using our products.

Their core competencies relate to ground support, utilising fibre-reinforced sprayed concrete, rock and cable bolt grouting, specialized injection resins and grouts for ground consolidation and water stopping.

Concrete repair and abrasion and impact-resistant flooring products are also widely used both above and below ground in the mining industry.

High abrasion areas such as at crusher loading areas, ore passes etc. need regular maintenance and repairs. MEYCO has a wide range of products to provide solutions in these areas.

The company’s coal mining support products complement the production and safety demands created by longwall and continuous miner mining methods.

MEYCO has a range of polyurethane and high-performance urea silicate resins for coal consolidation and void filling.

The faster reaction of urea silicate resins and their superior bonding capability improve safety and time saving.

MEYCO’s Thin Spray-on Liner (MEYCO TSL) technology is a recent improvement.

This unique sprayable membrane, which is flame retardant, is fast gaining ground as a fast-track surface protection medium with multiple application areas such as ventilation control in mines.

The company’s pumpable non-shrink and aerated cement grouts provide added benefits to the coal mining industry.

With many underground projects attracting international contractor and design teams, our global presence permits seamless technology and service transfer to any of your projects.

Through its continual, proactive involvement in tunnelling and mining projects, the MEYCO Global Development Center based in Zurich, Switzerland, is constantly developing new products and innovative processes to meet your specific requirements.

We recognise that your success is based on delivering solutions that meet, if not exceed, your customers’ valid needs.
