Jakob Müller Group (JMG), a global leader in narrow fabric weaving machinery, has acquired 100% of Italian wide-label weaving specialist MEI International, effective January 1, 2025. This strategic move expands JMG’s technology portfolio, enhancing its position in the woven label market.
With MEI’s advanced air-jet weaving machines now part of the JMG lineup, JMG will phase out its own Müjet air-jet model. The acquisition promises a broader product offering, accelerated innovation, and reinforced financial strength, while maintaining both companies’ customer support structures.
MEI will continue to operate independently in Gallarate, Italy, with Paolo Mazzucchelli remaining CEO. Both brands will retain their market presence and dedicated sales teams.
“This marks a major milestone in our JMG 2030 strategy,” said Andreas Conzelmann, CEO of JMG. “Together, we aim to deliver unmatched quality, reliability, and innovation.”
