Mahr Metering Systems Corporation

What Mahr Metering Systems Corporation does

Mahr Metering Systems Corporation is the US operating entity of Mahr Group's metering-systems division, headquartered in Göttingen, Germany, with this US production site located in Charlotte, North Carolina. The company designs and manufactures high-precision gear metering pumps — including planetary spinning pumps, spin finish metering pumps, block- and inline-mounted gear pumps, double-port gear pumps, discharge and pressure-increase pumps, and pumps for chemicals and paint application — built to tightest tolerances using latest production technology, with full interchangeability of single components to lower lifetime repair cost. The product range also includes meter mix dispense technology, sold under the MarMax brand (LS, PS, PSTC and Hazloc machines) and complemented by static, dynamic and static-dynamic mixing heads and accessories such as tank-based metering, submersible and platen systems, refill pumps and solvent carts.

The business is family-owned and still owner-managed as part of the privately-held Mahr Group, which also has divisions in metrology and motion control. Mahr Metering Systems distributes globally through a direct-sales model and a network of wholly-owned operating entities — Mahr Unipre in Werl (Germany), Mahr Metering Systems Corporation in Charlotte (USA) and Mahr China in Suzhou — serving ten industrial verticals including automotive, composites, fibers, adhesives, chemicals, plastics, aerospace, engineering, construction and packaging. Primary end-uses are coating, spraying, casting, injection processes, spin finish application, fiber and filament production, polymer extrusion and adhesive application, with three verticals — automotive, composites and fibers — flagged as primary focus.

Revenue is generated through hardware sales of capital equipment rather than software or subscription streams, and pricing is not publicly disclosed; customers are routed to regional contact persons via the corporate website and direct sales channels. Marketing is limited to a professional B2B presence with a LinkedIn page, downloadable product resources and a global contacts directory. Mahr Metering Systems has been associated with the broader Mahr brand lineage since 1861, when Carl Mahr founded the company in Esslingen and developed the first dimensional metrology.
