Learn more about us
Believing that a large part of the products we use every day could be made locally, which would reduce unnecessary transport and create meaningful jobs, Mekanika has made it its mission to make manufacturing more accessible on a local scale!
How? To achieve this goal, they create open-source machines and educational content, so that anyone can start creating objects in a matter of days, without prior technical knowledge.
Mekanika has now developed two ranges of machines with a scalable character:
> Screen printing, to enable textile printing and the launch of small clothing lines.
> Digital milling, to enable the digital manufacture of wood, metal, plastic or even stone elements.
Mekanika is a great success thanks to its innovative machines! More than 1500 passionate entrepreneurs and creatives are already equipped, in 40 countries. Enough to have a local impact across the globe!

A taste of the team
A lot of mutual aid and communication, a stimulating environment, an ambitious mission that values the work and abilities of each person, these are the components of an organization like Mekanika. But it is the team that welds it all together. The team organizes open moments where each employee can invite family and friends to discover their activity, and drinks, meals and surprise team days are real moments of sharing.

Our commitments to a sustainable world
The recent economic and ecological crises as well as widespread relocation have pushed Mekanika to change things. The company is a proponent of a new model, in which production would be centered on a local scale and would give back importance to people. This is why they equip craftsmen both near their workshop and on the other side of the world. Their goal is above all to help local production.
Mekanika's philosophy also takes into account the environmental impact. Thus, their machines are designed with a maximum of standard parts and non-final assemblies, in order to facilitate repair and recycling. Suppliers are selected for their geographical proximity and steel or aluminum parts are produced locally, in French and Belgian companies. In general, the environmental impact is at the heart of their thinking, as well as the financial factor.
Mekanika also advocates knowledge sharing, with the presence of an open source catalog hosted by the famous Github platform. It provides the necessary information so that the user can adapt or modify Mekanika machines according to his needs.
It is for all these reasons that Meet My Job is proud to support Mekanika.
