La nueva generación asume funciones estratégicas en MEGH y refuerza la continuidad en materia de gobernanza e innovación.
MEGH, a Brazilian company specializing in waxes, emulsions, and dispersions, is beginning a new chapter with the structured entry of the second generation into management. The heirs will assume executive positions in sales, finance, corporate management, and marketing, while co-founder and technical director Ricardo Dittmer remains in charge of the technical area.
This movement occurs within a national context where family businesses account for a significant portion of the economy and employment, but still face risks in generational transitions—only about 30% reach the third generation, according to surveys cited by IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics), the World Bank, and governance entities. The adoption of boards and formal management practices is cited as a factor in the longevity of these processes.
In the new configuration, Bruno Monteiro takes over as Director of Finance and Corporate Management; Leonardo Monteiro becomes Commercial Director; and Ricardo Parciasepe acts as Marketing Manager — in an executive rotation trajectory within a governance structure that includes a board and standardization of processes.
“In the coming years, our mission is to build the platform for MEGH’s growth: better processes, structured communication, and consolidated governance. The goal is simple and ambitious at the same time — to create the conditions for the company’s technical work to emerge and scale,” says Ricardo Parciasepe, Marketing Manager.
Para Bruno Monteiro, Diretor de Finanças e Gestão Corporativa, o foco está em gestão e pessoas. “Cheguei encontrando uma base sólida e dados bem organizados. O desafio agora é engajar equipes, modernizar práticas e acelerar decisões ancoradas em informação, mantendo a saúde financeira e a qualidade do crescimento.”
No comercial, Leonardo Monteiro, lidera a virada de cultura e métodos. “Implementamos ferramentas como planejamento estratégico, OKRs e rotina de metas. É o ‘feijão com arroz’ bem feito que muda resultado e prepara a internacionalização.”
The decision to keep the founder in the technical operation was strategic. “My father remains active as technical director. Our entry is not a disruption; it’s continuity with updating. We bring in learnings from outside and transform them into processes to sustain what already differentiates us,” adds Ricardo Parciasepe.
The modernization agenda includes structuring a previously non-existent marketing area, creating sales routines with goals and a sales funnel, and consolidating management rituals. According to the board, these initiatives increase predictability, strengthen the brand, and support expansion into new markets.
On the financial and corporate front, governance is the priority. Bruno emphasizes that good practices accelerate organizational maturity and reduce risks in volatile economic cycles. “We want to grow with quality, invest in technology, and keep the business healthy—size is a consequence of discipline.”
Leonardo enfatiza a integração entre técnica e mercado. “A MEGH tem tecnologia de alto desempenho. Nosso papel é traduzir isso em proposta de valor clara, com atendimento ágil, portfólio alinhado ao cliente e posicionamento competitivo em novos países.”
A comunicação também muda de patamar. A companhia está padronizando cargos, alinhando perfis públicos — como LinkedIn e porta-vozes — e adotando linguagem adequada a cada canal. A meta é dar visibilidade ao que a empresa já faz e aproximar públicos técnicos e não técnicos sem perder rigor.
“Communicating well isn’t about abandoning the technical aspects; it’s about making them understandable and relevant. When we demonstrate the practical impact of technology, we expand the market and attract talent,” says Ricardo Parciasepe, who rotates through administrative areas to consolidate processes.
O cenário externo corrobora a estratégia. Entidades como o IBGC e estudos de mercado indicam que empresas familiares que adotam conselhos e profissionalizam a gestão elevam resiliência e desempenho — especialmente em fases de sucessão.
For the next ten years, the vision is one of sustained expansion. “We want to expand our presence outside of Brazil with innovative solutions and, above all, maintain a financially sound and well-managed business,” summarizes Bruno. “Internationalization is about image, service, and consistency.”
In sales, the ambition is to combine technical depth with execution. “A team with goals, market intelligence, and high-level customer service. That’s how we gain speed with quality,” Leonardo emphasizes.
A mensagem final é de continuidade com evolução. “Vamos estruturar a empresa para que o trabalho técnico voe ainda mais alto. Nosso papel é ser a base para a MEGH fazer o que sabe de melhor — inovar”, conclui Ricardo Parciasepe.

MEGH presenta soluciones sostenibles e innovadoras para la industria de la pintura en la feria Abrafati 2025.
Brazilian company highlights four pillars that unite innovation, technology, performance, and environmental commitment.
MEGH, a leader in wax, emulsion, and dispersion technology with a focus on innovation and sustainability, is participating in Abrafati Show 2025, the main event for the paint industry in Latin America. The company will present four strategic pillars of its portfolio to the public: MEGH solutions.®PRINT PTFE Free (Teflon-free), biodegradable waxes, as well as lines focused on hydrophobicity and textures. These new products increase the resistance and durability of surfaces and expand aesthetic and sensory possibilities in architectural and interior design projects – all aligned with global demands for technical performance and environmental responsibility.
"Participating in the Abrafati Show is always a strategic opportunity to demonstrate how MEGH is at the forefront of the sector, combining materials science with real sustainability. Our commitment is to offer solutions that anticipate regulatory trends and meet the demands of clients worldwide,", says Ricardo Dittmer, Technical Director and one of the founders of MEGH.

The first highlight is the line MEGH®PRINT PTFE Free, developed to replace the use of Teflon in ink and coating formulations. This innovation responds to global regulatory pressure on PTFE, especially in Europe and the United States. The solutions guarantee slip properties and productivity in printing and finishing processes, without the risks associated with traditional materials.
Another distinguishing feature is the portfolio of biodegradable and bio-based waxes, which achieve up to 100% biodegradability in a short period of time, according to international tests by the OECD and ASTM. These solutions offer safe alternatives for sectors such as paints, packaging, and cosmetics, contributing to the reduction of microplastics in the environment.
The company will also showcase products with water resistance and hydrophobicity, which increase the durability of coatings in applications such as wood, flooring, and architectural paints. The technology protects against abrasion and wear, reducing maintenance needs.
The line of micronized waxes MEGH®PRINT W enables different textures – from smooth to rough finishes – in industrial and architectural paints. The solution allows for everything from sophisticated aesthetic effects to greater mechanical resistance, expanding the range of options for clients seeking differentiation in the market.
Environmental commitment
MEGH’s investment in green solutions is part of a strategy initiated two decades ago. The company works on projects to reduce its carbon footprint, uses recyclable raw materials, invests in renewable energy, and seeks international certifications such as Ecovadis, Bio-based (USA), and biodegradability (Brazil and Europe).
"Our vision is clear: we want to be recognized not only as wax producers, but as developers of solutions that combine high technical performance and sustainability. This is what drives us and what we want to highlight at Abrafati," adds Dittmer.
MEGH’s technologies undergo validation in laboratories in Brazil, Europe, and the United States, ensuring international credibility. Part of the portfolio is in the process of global patenting, including biodegradable synthetic waxes.
Recognized as the largest gathering of paint manufacturers and suppliers in Latin America, the Abrafati Show is also a showcase for global trends. For MEGH, presence at the event is fundamental to engaging with clients and strategic partners and presenting its technologies at a time of regulatory transformation and growing environmental concern.
“We want Abrafati Show 2025 to be more than just a business fair. For us, it will be an opportunity to reinforce MEGH's commitment to the future of the sector, showing that it is possible to combine productivity, innovation and environmental responsibility,” concludes the Technical Director.

MEGH celebra casi cuatro décadas como referente en innovación en el sector químico.
Founded in 1987, this Brazilian company has built a legacy of resilience and technology, consolidating its national and international presence.
The story of MEGH is a portrait of Brazilian entrepreneurial innovation and resilience. Founded in 1987, the company was born from the entrepreneurial vision of three partners who decided to transform an opportunity rejected by a multinational into a solid business, now recognized as one of the leading names in specialty chemicals in the country.
The context of its founding was challenging: Brazil was going through a period of economic instability, with recurring crises and high inflation. Even so, Ricardo Dittmer, along with Arnaldo Monteiro and Martin Frank Herrmann, saw the chance to start their own operation based on a discontinued product on the market. This decision marked the beginning of a journey that spans over 35 years.
“While it initially seemed risky to bet on something that an industry giant had abandoned, today we see that this innovative spirit is part of MEGH's essence. We always seek to look where others didn't see value and transform that into a solution,” says Ricardo Dittmer, CEO and one of the founders.
The company’s first headquarters were established in São Paulo, where the founders began manufacturing specialty waxes. Over time, MEGH expanded its portfolio, leveraging its accumulated knowledge in specialty chemicals to diversify and serve different industry segments.
In the 1990s, the company took a strategic step towards quality, achieving its first ISO 9000 certification in 1997, which it maintains to this day. Since then, it has never recorded a non-conformity, reinforcing its commitment to structuring consistent and efficient processes.
With the turn of the millennium, the company began investing more heavily in research and development. Projects in partnership with the sugar and ethanol sector resulted in significant advances in the production of waxes from sugarcane, paving the way for new sustainable solutions.
This innovation movement also led to the diversification of raw materials, including the use of plant-based sources such as rice and sunflower, as well as the development of ester waxes with biodegradable properties. The search for more sustainable alternatives has become a strategic pillar of the company.
A recent milestone was the discovery of a proprietary process that confers accelerated biodegradability to polyethylene waxes. The technology, already in the process of being patented internationally, has made it possible to reduce the degradation time of these materials from centuries to a few weeks under suitable conditions.
“This type of advancement shows how applied science can transform environmental challenges into opportunities. We believe our role goes beyond providing inputs: it is also about contributing to a more sustainable future,” Dittmer emphasizes.
Currently, MEGH serves more than 25 industrial segments, with a strong presence in plastics, adhesives, and paints. Its agile innovation model, supported by research, development, and technical application laboratories, ensures faster response times compared to large multinational companies in the sector.
With a consolidated presence in Brazil and expanding operations abroad, the company has around 200 employees and has been expanding its portfolio with sustainable products, which are increasingly valued in the chemical sector. Consistent growth over the years is accompanied by optimistic projections, with advances of around 30% in the coming periods.
In addition to product innovations, the company invests in internal sustainability practices, such as energy efficiency projects and programs aimed at reducing its carbon footprint. The adoption of these initiatives reflects MEGH’s commitment to aligning its operations with principles of social and environmental responsibility, in line with global demands for cleaner solutions.
Another highlight is the expansion of testing and certifications in international markets, ensuring that products meet the most stringent requirements in terms of biodegradability and biobase. This strategy reinforces the company’s credibility and opens doors to new opportunities in a scenario where ESG criteria are increasingly decisive.
The company’s resilience can be measured by its ability to overcome periods of economic instability and global crises. During the Covid-19 pandemic, for example, it maintained investments in innovation, preserving jobs and accelerating projects that became competitive differentiators.
Another important chapter in the recent trajectory was the arrival of the second generation in executive management and on the company’s board. This move symbolized the evolution of corporate governance, ensuring greater administrative robustness and preparing MEGH to navigate new phases of growth.
For Dittmer, this journey is marked by the sum of three factors: solidity, innovation, and perpetuity. “I’ve always understood that a company isn’t born to die. MEGH was born to transcend generations and continue evolving. It is this legacy that we are building and strengthening every day,” concludes the CEO.
