Qimarox experiencing growth spurt in 20th year of business

This year, it is exactly twenty years ago since Qimarox was founded. In those twenty years, the company from Harderwijk has become a producer of components for material handling systems that are sold globally. Qimarox distinguishes itself in the market with a vision – standard machines at a competitive price – which has been very successful. In recent years, sales have risen by an average of 15% per year.

In 1995, Pieter Hannessen started with the construction of palletisers and vertical transport systems for integration into end-of-line packaging systems, under the name ‘Nedpack’. Because of the impressive performance of these innovative, patented machines, in 2008, the company decided to shift the focus from the integration of end-of-line packaging systems to the construction of the necessary components. In 2012, this led to the introduction of a new trade and brand name: ‘Qimarox’.

Today Qimarox produces a wide range of products – from vertical conveyors to palletisers – for system integrators and original equipment manufacturers across the globe. Nedpack offers complete palletising solutions, which can be used by these integrators in their projects. This year, the product range has been extended with a rotary ring stretch wrapper, which is being put on the market in line with the familiar philosophy of Qimarox: a standardised, modular machine that is easy to use and maintain and low in price.

Serving customers in their own language

Following the popular Prorunner mk5, a unique, patented vertical transport system that works according to the paternoster principle, the other components of Qimarox will also be sold worldwide. The components are applied not only in end-of-line packaging systems, but also in logistics systems in different sectors.

The growth has led to an expansion of the workforce, which is largely focused on the international field of activity of Qimarox. From Harderwijk, several of our employees with different nationalities serve customers from a large number of different countries in their own language.
