Free “Sheet Pile” app helps users quickly find
information they need
The company’s engineering department is available to solve customers’
technical problems and to “design projects, or to redesign them
to find the best and most cost-effective solutions,” said Koelewijn.
“People in our business usually have a lot of things going on at once
and can’t afford to waste time,” he said, and Meever’s free “Sheet Pile”
app, which can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play,
helps users calculate the dimensions of sheet piles and beams and
weights of tubes and pipes in either metric or U.S. standard units.
“Having access to all sorts of sheet and pipe pile information on a
simple app allows estimators, engineers, purchasing managers, project
managers or anyone dealing with steel piling products to find the
information they need quickly and easily,” he said.
“Buy American” provisions aren’t a problem
Although most of Meever’s manufacturing facilities are in Europe, the
Middle East or Asia, “‘Buy American’ provisions aren’t a problem for us,”
said Koelewijn, explaining that trade agreements negotiated between
the U.S. and many of its international trading partners have exempted
a range of foreign-made steel products. “Luckily, most European countries
are in this agreement, and we also have several options, including
American partners, to provide materials for these projects.”

Their next step was further establishing their foothold in the
U.S. market by joining an industry association.
“Joining PDCA was the obvious way for our company to get
its name known here,” said Koelewijn. “As a distributor and leaser
of steel sheet piles, pipe piles and H-piles we want to connect with
everyone in the North American piling business. ‘Meever’ is a big
name globally but ‘Meever USA’ is still a new name in the U.S. steel
market. We hope to change that.” t
