Rotar expands production capacity

Netherlands-based Rotar, a manufacturer of hydraulic attachments for the demolition and recycling industry, has expanded its production capacity with the addition of 1,300 square metres factory hall.

Technical Director Roel Barelds says the company has seen increasing demand for its products. “For that reason, we expanded our production plant with an additional 1,300-square-metre factory hall.”

He adds, “Sparks will fly in the new hall, as the cutting and burning of steel plates, among other machining procedures, will take place in this addition to the Rotar factory.”

As a result of expanding its factory and moving the rough machining procedures to the new hall, Rotar says it has created more floor space in its existing production halls. The company also has invested in new machining tools, heavy forklifts and a new spray booth.

The new factory hall will be ready for use at the beginning of April 2016.

The new factory hall is the second development for Rotar in recent months. The company opened a North American division in Cleveland, USA, in November 2015.

With its expanded production capacity, the company says it plans to manufacture more product ranges in larger series.

Rotar Sales Director Louis Broekhuizen says, “We are extremely proud on the trust our growing group of customers have in our products and our company. Their success with our attachments is the ultimate goal we strive for. Our dedicated group of dealers are the vital link and share the success.”

He adds, “We work hard and will go that extra mile to keep growing in the upcoming years and do this together with our customers, dealers and our enthusiastic team of industry professionals.”
