Ten Key Facts about MeshBlox you should know

1. We are the innovator in the field.
We are the only true one box containerised solution. Built for the mining and industrial sectors, it’s tough, modular and scalable. Importantly it integrates easily and can deliver as a simple server room right through to a small data center, high redundancy solution.
We challenge conventional packaging. It’s not a data centre squeezed into a box. We leave that to others.

2. We have experienced industry sector resources.
Not only do we have experienced ICT experts in the network infrastructure and data centre space, but we pride ourselves on building teams out of the sectors we service. Miners, Engineers, Project managers, Scientists in this way we have a better understanding of the industry and can ensure the highest quality solution for each and every project.

3. We offer a comprehensive delivery strategy
We don’t just sell containerized products. We offer a full set of services that help an organization determine the best fit and then build a manageable transition strategy. We won’t abandon you. Building a high resiliency IT or telecommunications solution is a business decision, our delivery is business driven.

From point of order to shipping from our factory is 6 weeks. This allows a realistic commissioning time of 8 weeks depending on shipping durations. No other solution gives you the predictability of deployment like a DataBlox. We help you prepare your site ready for delivery before the DataBlox arrives. With minimal test and commissioning activities, your DataBlox will be ready to use straight away. For extra deployment agility, pre-build your racks. Install prior to shipping for those remote sites or install into your deployed DataBlox.

4. Our Eco approach is not just Green Wash.
Our Eco approach is real, It underpins why our company started. Network infrastructure and the housing of equipment in data centres and server rooms can’t continue as it has. Building for peak load, and applying band-aid fixes, to green-wash fundamental poor design, is common place in the industry. Working with peak scientific bodies such as the CSIRO and Universities we will bring real, tested, solutions that increase efficiency, and drastically reduce the environmental impact. We always challenge conventional thinking.

5. We conform to international quality standards
In order to provide optimum service to its customers we design and manufactures under international quality standards: Design & Manufacturing -ISO 9001:2000, Design - AS-2834:1995

6. We are ahead of the game.
When others are working out how to squeeze a data centre in a box or maximising processing capability in a container, we are challenging conventional wisdom.
Eco sustainable cooling solutions, plug n’ play deployment, practical redundancy, not strive for elegance, start small and scale power and cooling, build for equipment not people. These are just some of the innovative thinking we apply every day.

7. Made for equipment not people
Amazing isnt it. Equipment get smaller, but the places we house it get bigger. Who pays for big buildings to house this gear and make you IT staff feel comfortable and important?. Increasingly landlords are restricting the use of floor space for server rooms – expensive changes to plant, and reduces overall capacity of the building. It’s a compromise – people space turned into equipment space.. We take a practical view – solutions for the equipment.

8. We are a Australian owned and operated company.
Aussies are known worldwide for their innovative and practical solutions. Our solutions are built for the Australian climate, recognized as one of the toughest in the world.

All components are within the footprint of a ISO shipping container making transport and accommodation a hassle free exercise.

Today we face numerous environmental problems contributed by man. Acid rain, the greenhouse effect, and air and water pollution, are only a few of the problems. As we head into the 21st Century, we will continue to experience a diminishing supply of natural resources. It is important therefore, that we conserve our valuable resources by reusing and recycling them whenever possible. By recycling, less energy is required than when using virgin resources, both in the initial extraction of resources and in manufacturing new products. Recycling conserves valuable natural resources and saves millions of dollars of valuable materials that would otherwise be buried in landfills. For the environment, processing recyclables into new goods produces far less air, water and land pollution. By changing our destructive habits we will begin to sustain a healthier environment and preserve our finite resources for future generations.

That is why MeshBlox has made a commitment to recycling & reuse.

MeshBlox actively supports the protection of the environment by efficiently recycling or reusing where feasible all our waste; especially electronic waste, frequently called E-waste. We believe in a no landfill policy. We are committed to our customers, our communities and to everyone's environment. We provide products that can be recycled and offer a practical option for reuse.

Through strategic alliances MeshBlox has partnered with leading specialists in the recycling and reuse of product components. MeshBlox actively seeks out and uses suppliers that comply with ISO 9000 & 14001 international standards.

We actively contract with companies that:

1. Certify the destruction of equipment and materials.
2. Follow an environmentally correct disposition of goods.
3. Are actively recycling all metals & plastics.
4. Provide 100% accountability for materials.
5. Have a strict No Landfill policy.
6. Are ISO 9001, ISO 14001 or an certified recycler.
