META-HTS

About Us

Meta-HTS Technology

Meta-HTS is a vertically integrated builder of modules and machines for food & beverage, pharma and technically demanding industrial sectors. Our internal organisation, structured into five independent departments coordinated by a single engineering control, allows us to operate in build-to-print, build-to-spec and design-to-spec, responding quickly to complex requirements and supporting major OEMs as a strategic partner on their most critical projects.

We build modules and machines that OEMs cannot afford to get wrong – Critical modules for complex production lines

Meta-HTS designs and builds process modules and machines for industrial lines where reliability, compliance and delivery times are non-negotiable variables. We work with line builders (OEMs), system integrators and end manufacturers in the food & beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and other technically demanding industrial sectors. We step in at the point in the process where the customer needs to transfer complexity and responsibility: from pure build-to-drawing all the way to the complete development of a machine starting from a functional specification.

Food & Beverage

Food & Beverage

Advanced solutions for food production with state-of-the-art technologies to ensure safety and quality.

Pharmaceutical

Pharmaceutical

Aseptic environments and stainless steel manufacturing for the pharmaceutical sector with the highest hygiene standards.

Industrial

Industrial

TEAM

A single engineering control built to absorb complexity

Our team brings together multidisciplinary expertise in process engineering, industrial automation and manufacturing production. Technicians, designers and specialists work together to develop efficient, reliable solutions geared towards optimising production processes. The experience gained in the field allows us to tackle complex projects with a pragmatic, precise and results-driven approach.

Services & Technology

Our technologies

Our production facility is organised into five independent departments, each with specialist expertise, its own processes and direct responsibility for the result. The five departments operate under a single engineering control that governs their flow, sequence and integration on every order.

Assembly

Mechanical and electrical integration of the module or machine, sub-assembly mounting, alignments and bench functional testing. The assembly department is where the expertise of the other four departments converges into a finished product, tested and ready for FAT.

Welding

Certified welding on stainless steel and special materials, with process and personnel qualifications compliant with the standards required by the food, pharmaceutical and industrial sectors. Complete documentary traceability, control of process parameters and internal finishing of joints where process criticality requires it.

Piping

Detailed design and construction of stainless steel process lines, with in-house prefabrication of skids, manifolds and complex circuits. Integrated management of layouts, isometrics, supports and certified components. In-house piping allows the module to be built as a system, not as a sum of parts.

Machining

Precision machining of critical components, special parts and sub-assemblies that require tight tolerances or non-standard geometries. In-house machining reduces dependence on external suppliers precisely on the parts most exposed to quality and lead-time risk.

Finishing

Surface treatments, micro shot-peening, electropolishing, passivation, roughness checks and surface preparation according to the requirements of the target sector. In-house finishing is a guarantee of compliance in sectors where cleanability and material compatibility are an integral part of the specification.

Our services

Three ways of working together: Build to Print - Build to Spec - Design to Spec, chosen according to the maturity of the project. The value of an industrial partner depends on its ability to enter the project at the right level. Meta-HTS operates according to three engagement models, activated based on the technical maturity of the project and the degree of responsibility the customer wishes to transfer.

Build to Print

When the design is complete and the bill of materials is defined, Meta-HTS executes. We guarantee reliable execution, repeatable quality and on-time delivery on customer drawings, even when build complexity is significant.

Build to Spec

When the customer provides a functional specification or a partial design, Meta-HTS takes charge of industrialisation: we engineer the sub-assemblies, complete the bill of materials and turn the concept into a producible, tested and deliverable module.

Design to Spec

When the customer defines only what the module must do, Meta-HTS develops the complete solution. We design, prototype, industrialise and deliver, taking technical responsibility for the functional result.

Why choose Meta-HTS

We are a strategic partner

On a complex production line, the value of a module does not equal its cost: a delay, a non-conformity or a poorly managed interface can impact a plant worth many times more. It is in this scenario that Meta-HTS's vertical integration becomes a strategic choice for the OEM, not a price variable. By working with Meta-HTS, an OEM gains: fewer suppliers to coordinate on critical components and modules; greater predictability on lead times, quality and documentation, thanks to in-house control of every stage; fewer non-conformities, because the hand-offs between departments are governed by a single control; faster response on changes, customisations and rapid industrialisation; technical responsibility concentrated in a single point of contact, from drawing to testing. Meta-HTS does not present itself as one more supplier. It presents itself as the part of the supply chain that does not need to be managed.
