ABOUT US

In 1980 Herbert Meulenbroek founded his own company: Meulenbroek Jachtbouw. The first major assignment was to build a hull of a 10-meter motor yacht. Through a recycling company in Enschede he came into contact with a German company that had about 60 waste presses in the Netherlands. Herbert was going to do the service and maintenance for that German company. It was then that younger brother Maarten joined the business.

In 1981 the German company also offered representation in addition to service and maintenance for the machines in the Netherlands. Then the oldest brother Joost also joined the business. It soon became apparent that there was a demand for small compactor containers in the Netherlands. Meulenbroek then designed and built the first waste compactor. The first press was a fact, the KPC 4500. The KPC 4500 was sold in the Netherlands under the name Meulenbroek. In Germany, especially after the fall of the Berlin wall, there appeared to be a large market for smaller compactors.

which also started the first export. In May 1985 contact was made with a Swedish firm. The first export order to Sweden followed in September of that year. Sweden is still one of the countries to which is exported. However, exports are becoming increasingly important. At the moment you can see our compactors at work in: England, Ireland, Belgium, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Cyprus, France, Portugal, Chile, Curaçao, Japan and China.

We would like to make a positive contribution to the environment, whereby less waste shipments already turn out to be a major contribution. In addition, our machines are produced in an environmentally conscious manner, in which sustainability is an important keyword. For example, we have focused more on Lean production, where by means modern techniques, modular construction and shorter lead times, are produced more efficiently. Social entrepreneurship is also a demonstrable part of our organization. Professional training in the form of work-based learning is a matter of course at Meulenbroek Machinebouw (BBL). In addition, Meulenbroek offers permanent positions to people with a disadvantage on the labor market (WAO, WIA, WAZ & Wahjong). All this under the guidance of qualified teachers.
As an organization we have several goals, one of our goals is to reduce the transport costs of our customers by compressing waste or recyclable materials. However, the continued development of compaction containers and stationary presses, whereby an even higher compaction can be achieved, is an important goal for the future. In addition, our final goal is to continue to distinguish ourselves from competitors in terms of quality, customer-specific presses and service.
Quality is of paramount importance to us in the organization,by learning from the past and looking to the future we have made it possible for ourselves to supply the world’s best compactors and stationary presses. Due to this good quality, the press containers and stationary presses have a longer life than the press containers of many competitors. Not only the quality of the product is an important item, but also the quality of the service.
In addition to excellent quality, we also offer excellent service. We make every effort to be of service to our customers. Whether it concerns a question, an appointment for service provision or a request for a quote, we always try to be of service to you immediately. Fast service is a matter of course for us, because 2 skilled service technicians can be deployed very quickly. In addition, we also provide service from our support points in the north, south and west of the Netherlands.
