About Emeg Group
The company was formed in 1997 by Richard Simmonite, a time-served Electrical Engineer with over 30 years’ experience within the rail sector. Today, Emeg is a totally rail focused company with a UK Head Office, Manufacturing & Distribution Hub and R&D Centre of Excellence in Chesterfield, a Design Office in Manchester and an International HQ in Dubai.
Emeg offer turnkey in-house solutions to all rail engineering projects – from new build, enhancement & refurbishment works to some of the most exciting and ambitious rail projects taking place all over the world. Throughout our long-standing history, our work has been mainly within maintenance depots and sidings, station upgrades and re-signalling / pway project works; however, these days, there isn’t much our growing team of rail experts can’t handle.

40+ Years of Safety
