Become a Member

MTI represents producers, suppliers and organizations mainly in the Chemical Processing, Refining, Mining, and other Process Industries.

MTI primarily consists of two member types: Producers and Suppliers.
A Producer member is any process industries company with chemical processing and manufacturing capabilities. A Supplier member is any company that produces and sells materials, products, systems or equipment used by producer companies. In 2016 the MTI Board of Directors approved a Producer/Supplier Ratio. MTI membership will maintain a 50/50 ratio of supplier to producer members. Additionally, MTI may admit other organizations, institutes and associations on a case-by-case basis. These are considered an "Organizational" member type and do not affect the ratio.

PRODUCER APPLICANTS
Producers may join at any time. Given the dues amounts, MTI does not process memberships online. Please contact MTI headquarters to inquire and begin the process – call +1 314.567.4111 or email mtiadmin@mti-global.org.

SUPPLIER APPLICANTS
Any supplier member inquiries will be reviewed using the supplier membership application and will be added to a Supplier Waiting List. When an opening becomes available, waiting list applicants will be notified. Applicants can then begin the membership agreement and dues payment process.

MTI membership dues are determined from the published MTI Dues Schedule. Dues are based on the total sales of all divisions of the member company for the most recently audited fiscal year at the time of invoicing.

For organizations that do not publish audited sales figures, such as privately held corporations and state-owned-enterprises, the total sales must be certified by an officer. Membership dues for associations and other organizations, which do not have revenue from sales, will be considered by the Board of Directors on a case-by-case basis. The Board of Directors may make exceptions to this policy based on the discretion of the board.

What are the benefits?
MTI member-led projects are the primary benefit of membership. These projects focus on both developing new technology and transferring existing knowledge to day–to–day practice. Practical, generic, nonproprietary studies are conducted on the selection, design, fabrication, testing, inspection, and performance of materials of construction used in the process industries. The scope of work includes evaluation of metallic and non-metallic materials, optimum design applications, fitness–for–service, mechanical integrity and life cycle determinations, and economic factors affecting performance of vessels, tanks, piping and other components.

Through membership and networking within MTI, companies can access solutions to nonproprietary problems of major concern to the process industries. Benefits to member companies are increased plant integrity, reliability and profitability.
