We are thrilled to announce that DE Klop BV, a leading force in the dredge building sector, has successfully acquired ROHR-IDRECO!
This strategic move comes on the heels of our recent acquisition of Hollandsche IJssel, further solidifying DE Klop BV’s position in the international dredging industry and underscoring our unwavering commitment to growth and innovation.
Why This Matters:
Enhanced Service Delivery: Combining our strengths will elevate our service offerings in the dredging and mining markets, providing our customers with unparalleled solutions.
Expanded Product Range: ROHR-IDRECO, renowned for its fully electric driven dredges and high-efficiency “iPump” series, perfectly complements DE Klop/Hollandsche IJssel’s pump line. Our customers now have access to an even broader range of cutting-edge pumps and dredging systems.
Global Reach: With decades of experience, ROHR-IDRECO has delivered hundreds of dredge systems worldwide, particularly in Europe and the Americas. This acquisition enhances our global footprint and expertise.
Arnold den Boon, CEO and co-owner of DE Klop, shares his enthusiasm: “We are pleased with this milestone for DE Klop. ROHR-IDRECO has a long history as a reliable supplier of high-quality dredging equipment. By joining forces, we will create a win-win for both companies, and we can improve our services, and offer a wider range of products and solutions to our customers.”
Fulco Vrooland, Managing Director of ROHR-IDRECO, adds: “I am very excited about this acquisition. The expertise of DE Klop on the cutter suction dredge side and our decades of experience in fully electric dredge systems, are complementary to each other and will be a key driver for growth in both the dredge as well as wet mining markets worldwide. ROHR-IDRECO will continue to operate under its original name and be supported by the current management in a seamless transition to the new ownership.”
Together, DE Klop/Hollandsche IJssel and ROHR-IDRECO are poised to deliver even greater value to our customers. We look forward to this new chapter of innovation and growth!
