An industry resource published by Cogan·

04 — About

Built for buyers, engineers, and operators who want to get this right.

The Mezzanine Experts is an industry resource focused on industrial mezzanines — design, engineering, code compliance, procurement, and installation. We publish guides, an open directory of manufacturers and installers, and free tools used by warehouse and facility teams across North America.

Who publishes this site

The Mezzanine Experts is published by Cogan, a Canadian industrial mezzanine, racking, and storage manufacturer founded in 1901. We chose to publish openly under the Cogan name rather than operate anonymously, because the value of this resource depends on trust — and trust starts with knowing who's behind it.

Cogan funds the editorial operation. Cogan does not dictate how competitors are covered, control ranking inside our directory, or edit articles to favor Cogan products at the expense of accurate comparison. See our editorial standards for the specific commitments and how to flag a concern.

How we cover the industry

We list every credible manufacturer and installer in our directory, including direct Cogan competitors. We publish honest comparison content — including dimensions where competitors are stronger than Cogan. We do not accept paid placement that affects ranking; sponsored tiers are labeled distinctly.

How content is produced

Articles are drafted with AI assistance and then reviewed, fact-checked, and signed by named engineers — most from Cogan's engineering team, some from external industry advisors. Every article carries a real author with verifiable credentials. We update articles as code changes, prices shift, or our understanding improves; the Last updated timestamp reflects substantive revisions, not cosmetic ones.

What we don't do

  • We don't accept paid links or sell PageRank.
  • We don't publish “best-of” rankings designed to favor our publisher.
  • We don't publish anonymously — every article has a named author with real credentials.
  • We don't use scraped, spun, or unreviewed AI-generated content.
