A new future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Selling the business to Mannes Westhuis means the company has an ambitious and enthusiastic new owner. He has quickly managed to familiarise himself with the plastics machining sector and he enjoys the trust of the personnel. Thanks to his extensive experience, I am confident that he will be able to take the company forward in the future\u2019, said Erwin Claassen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BKB Precision is the trade name of Van den Berg Kunststofbewerking BV, a company that was established in 1982. That\u2019s when the company took its first steps in the manufacturing industry. In 2008, Erwin Claassen acquired the company from Gerard van den Berg, who passed away recently. Within a few years he succeeded in achieving significant growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is Mannes Westhuis\u2019s wish to see the company\u2019s proven success continue further. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
