MAYEKAWA USA INC

What MAYEKAWA USA INC does

MAYEKAWA USA Inc. is the Americas regional subsidiary of Japanese industrial refrigeration manufacturer Mayekawa, operating under the trade name "Mayekawa Americas" and headquartered in Katy, United States. The company engineers and supplies industrial refrigeration systems, compressors, chillers, freezers, heat pumps, vapor recovery systems, biogas upgrading packages, and automated deboning machinery to enterprise customers across food processing, oil/gas/chemical, logistics and cold chain, beverages, and leisure/sports verticals. Coverage spans 26 countries across North America, Central America, the Caribbean, and South America through direct field sales and regional offices.

The technology stack is anchored by the MYCOM brand of reciprocating and screw compressors — marketed globally as a proven, durable component for industrial refrigeration, heat pumps, and gas compression — alongside proprietary low-charge ammonia chiller architectures, CO2-based natural refrigerant packages, and robotic deboning systems that automate handling of irregularly-shaped soft objects. A newer capability layer is biogas upgrading technology, deployed in partnership with Unconventional Gas Solutions to convert raw biogas from dairy digesters into pipeline-quality renewable natural gas. A customer-facing digital platform called MySelect handles account management, product configuration, and service access.

Revenue is generated primarily through custom-engineered hardware sales (refrigeration systems, MYCOM compressors, process packages, and parts) sold via direct enterprise field sales on multi-year contracts, supplemented by a recurring services/portal layer through MySelect. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed due to system configuration complexity. The go-to-market is consultative, targeting industrial customers with high capital expenditure budgets in food processing, dairy, meat/poultry/seafood, oil and gas, and increasingly renewable natural gas.
