Meka Pro Oy is a Finnish family-owned company that offers long-lasting cable tray solutions and solar panel mounts for industry, infrastructure, and construction. The company is known for over 40 years of innovative, responsible, and safe products. 

Huld and Meka Pro have been collaborating for 15 years. During this time, Huld has provided Meka Pro with a wide range of services, such as product concepting, mechanical design for metal and plastic components, technical analysis, and documentation – all under one roof. 

Growing Markets Drive the Need for a New Solution  

As the solar power market grew, Meka Pro wanted to develop a competitive solar panel mount and needed a reliable partner for its development. The goal was to create a durable, easy-to-install, modular, and high-quality product. 

Huld’s experts started by researching and developing Meka Pro’s ideas further. The collaboration was based on close communication and weekly meetings. Huld’s strong expertise in technical analysis and environmental impact assessments helped ensure the product’s durability and safety right from the start of the design work. 

Solution That Lasts Beyond Tomorrow with Technical Analysis 

During the project, interesting challenges were solved, especially in balancing strength requirements and manufacturing costs. Additionally, the rapid changes in the solar panel market brought new opportunities for development. During the collaboration, Huld’s experts took these factors into account by creating modular mounts that adapt to various panel solutions. 

Through the collaboration, Meka Pro was able to leverage Huld’s deep expertise in technical analysis and Eurocode standards. Huld’s experts developed innovative joint solutions during the collaboration, which improved the quality and durability of Meka Pro’s products. At the same time, costs were optimized by using materials efficiently and minimizing environmental impacts. 

A Reliable Partner for Product Development 

As a result of the long-term collaboration, Meka Pro now has two solar panel mount variants – one for larger panels and one for smaller panels. This allows for flexible product offerings for different solar power plant projects. 

“Our long-term collaboration with Meka Pro has been smooth and solution oriented. We have solved challenges together by listening to the customer’s needs. Meka Pro has a thorough understanding of manufacturing processes, which has made the collaboration efficient and productive.”Ville Westerlund, Product Development Manager, Huld.
