All our members are established specialists within their fields, and have the experience and commercial standing to provide quality, cost-effective solutions for all aspects of mechanisation for bulk materials handling and storage, conveyors, dust collection and control, instrumentation, mixers, big bag handling, sampling systems, sieves, valves and weighing systems and equipment.
It is well known that an elegant design that works reliably is devoid of baulking obstructions and ambiguities and is simple to understand and operate. It is, of necessity, the result of ingenuity, experience, good applied science and engineering. Crucially the designers will have taken the time to learn about the owners’ and operators’ materials, processes and needs. SHAPA has been promoting design excellence in solids handling and processing machinery and techniques for more than thirty years. The updated website www.shapa.co.uk has just made the task of product and technology selection in this diverse industrial sector one step simpler. In a diverse industry set encompassing a huge variety of mechanical, electrical and electronic devices, SHAPA has become the premier “central resource” for installers, users and operators.
The revised and updated website has three instantly
accessible sections headed Equipment Finder, Members and Technical. In
the Equipment Finder section will reveal all the categories from Bag
Handling to Sieves with sub-headings leading directly to the SHAPA
member companies specialising in the selected discipline. With over one
hundred member companies, the product finder list does provide the data
required to progress any solids handling and processing project. Member
companies are regularly provided with the most recent commercial,
legislative and technical information to confidently enable them to
offer well engineered and appropriate solutions. It is a tight knit
community of companies many of whom are either suppliers to, or
customers of fellow members and as such the regular members’ general
meetings are both informative and very useful networking opportunities.
An insight into the technical information available may be gained
by visiting the Technical section on the website. Much of this data is
available free for general use as part of SHAPA’s mission to benefit
industry at large. However, membership opens the door to greater
in-depth knowledge and advice on a range of relevant topics. You may
enter any relevant technical question on the simple enquiry page under
SHAPA: Technical Advice. Such enquiries will be actioned quickly and
passed to member companies best able to deal with the question. This
could be a quick route to finding a suitable company from whom to obtain
a quotation. Of course, if you are a supplier within our industries, the
next step should be to enquire about whether SHAPA membership could
benefit your organisation.
Since 1981 SHAPA has existed to be the focus of excellence within
our industries and be the association of choice for its manufacturers
and suppliers. 2018 sees the Association in rude health, with many long
standing members and actively attracting new companies. The updated
website, by innovative design, showcases the continuing advantages of
SHAPA to its members and industry at large. Visit www.shapa.co.uk, or
