Yet another new machine!
Company History
Almost 50 years of experience already
While working at Philips Machinefabriek, Toon Brans was already toying with the idea of starting his own business within the metal industry. What if he could follow his own vision, in his own way? After working hours, he retreated to the garage at night, where a metal lathe gave him the space to bring his passion to life. What began as a hobby quickly grew into more. In 1978, he took the plunge. It was the beginning of his own business. Founded on craftsmanship, perseverance and love for the craft.

Delivery reliability to be proud of
You can count on us, and the numbers show it. For years, we have delivered 95 to 98 percent of our orders on time, as promised. Not a coincidence, but the result of conscious choices. Clear communication, smart processes and a committed team ensure that we keep our promise time and time again. Consistent quality is not an aspiration, but a standard. That gives customers confidence and us reason to be proud.
Craftsmanship, reliability and people-oriented work are at the heart of our work
The metal industry is constantly evolving, and it is precisely this dynamism that makes our profession so interesting.
Over the years, significant strides have been made: from unmanned production to fully automated machinery.
It feels like coming home
A pleasant working atmosphere is essential for good cooperation. When everyone feels at home, you pull the cart together and you notice that every day. The contact is informal, the involvement high. During breaks we regularly play cards and colleagues often join us for dinner at Rolf and Yvette’s home.
This family atmosphere does not come out of the blue. Every year we organize various activities to appreciate our team: a barbecue just before the summer vacations, where partners are welcome, and an outing around Christmas. From skeet shooting to joint workshops and outings, it’s always fun and it strengthens the bonds between us.
Those who feel at home work with pleasure and confidence. And that is reflected in everything we do.
