MEINL & ECOLOGY
IT’S OUR WORLD, WE CARE FOR IT
Actions speak louder than words! This is why we take our responsibility seriously and commit our-
selves to several environmental projects. Our specially developed vacuum distillation saves 90,000
liters of drinking water, the world’s most threatened resource. In order to minimize our electricity
usage, all of our buildings are equipped with motion sensors and our centralized electricity controls
prevents the waste of this resource. With our solar-power-plant (Photovoltaic-System) we produce
enough power to supply 153 houses with electricity. All of the electricity used in our facility is
produced from renewable energies. Thus we reduced our carbon monoxide emission from 216 tons
per year down to zero. Reusable materials like paper, plastic or styrofoam are too precious to be
wasted. We separate them for efficient recycling.

LEGAL WOOD FROM INDONESIA


MEINL Percussion is proud to be in full accordance with the Timber Legality Assurance System
known as SVLK. The SVLK verification certifies that all of the wood products manufactured in
Indonesia, comply with Indonesian forest, and other relevant, laws. It also certifies that all the
products come from sources that are legally logged, transported, traded, and processed. This is all
in accordance with Indonesia‘s initiative to answer the global need to be more responsible with the
utilization of its natural resources.

WOOD FROM ENVIRONMENTALLY CONTROLLED WOOD PLANTATION


Thailand is a logical manufacturing base for percussion instruments due to the fact that the Hevea
Brasiliensis, which was indigenous to Brazil and later transported by way England to Asia, has
been commercially grown in Southeast Asia during the last century on plantation farms for the
production of Latex. The traditional plantation of Siam Oak (Hevea brasiliensis Muell.-Arg.) meets
all ecological requirements. Same counts for the plantation grown Mahogany Wood from Indone-
sia, which we use for our Original African Style Rope Tuned Wood Djembes. In a natural evolution,
new trees are planted and the older ones, which have ceased to provide latex, are harvested. In
this way, plenty of raw material is available and the valuablerain forest eco-system is preserved.

MATERIAL & ECOLOGY


Wood is a raw material which is present in almost every part of our daily life. Trees are an important
part of the complex eco-system while healthy forests are imperative for the Earth‘s atmosphere.
Only plantation grown Wood is used for the making of MEINL percussion instruments. This wood
fulfils the CITES regulations ("Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild
Fauna and Flora") and originates from environmentally controlled forests from industrial wood
plantations.

ARTISAN EDITION CAJONS
JOSÉ
HERNÁNDEZ DÍAZ
also known as 'Pepote' – was born in Huelva
(Spain) in November 1976. He inherited his pas-
sion for wood from his father and grandfather,
both of whom were aficionados of woodwork
and model aeroplanes.
He first came across the Cajon at the age of 13
while watching a Paco de Lucia concert on televi-
sion. Inspired to make his own, he soon started
receiving commissions from friends and acquaint-
ances when they realised that the Cajon was vir-
tually impossible to get hold of in Spain.
Pepote began taking these instruments to local
shops in his city when he was just 15 years old.
This marked the start of his woodwork training,
where he focussed on the production of musical
instruments by studying techniques for making
ancient musical instruments and guitars while
also completing his studies in industrial furniture
design.
Since then, he has been continually developing
the instrument and relentlessly perfecting his
craft. He came up with an aesthetic based on
comfort, tried and tested more than 30 different
kinds of wood for the construction, created a spe-
cial unbreakable string for the Cajon and tried 20
different kinds of varnish for the finish. The list
goes on. Everything he does revolves around get-
ting the best possible sound out of the instrument
and providing the ultimate peace of mind for the
percussionist.

NINO® PERCUSSION

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY


FOR CHILDREN

Teaching music in early childhood nurtures many things including perception,


motor skills and the ability to learn and retain information. Making music
also promotes personal confidence and social skills. These are all beneficial
well beyond one’s childhood years. NINO® Percussion offers an outstanding
collection of musical instruments designed specifically for children. These
more than meet the requirements of early childhood music education and
are ideal for kindergarten and school programs, or for music therapy and
other music-making activities. It is important to know that NINO ® Percus-
sion instruments are not toys. These are the real thing, designed for safety,
durability, attractiveness and playability. Most importantly, they are in tune
and musical. In fact, the only difference between NINO ® Percussion instru-
ments and those created for adults is their size and colour. These appealing
and pleasing designs are all made in Germany. And because they are of such
a high quality and include a wide variety of sound choices, they are extremely
popular with young players of all ages (teachers love them too). Yes, whether
played alone or within a group, the performance and sound quality of NINO®
Percussion instruments make them the ideal choice for young musicians and
those who teach them.
