Venjakob - from start-up to global player
Founded in Rheda-Wiedenbrück – successful around the world
There are plenty of mechanical engineering companies that started their lives as small locksmith’s shops. But not every one of them is destined to become a global player. Venjakob was. Our company was founded in 1963 in Rheda-Wiedenbrück, Germany, and is now one of the world's leading suppliers of industrial coating and finishing systems. We supply customized solutions for the entire production line, including pretreatment, drying technology, exhaust air purification and automation. Over the years we have maintained the forces that have pushed us forward from the very start: Inventive spirit, creativity and accuracy. But we have also acquired unique experience. We focus all these values on providing you with the best finishing system for your needs. That’s what we mean by our promise: Your Finishing Line. Our Process Experience.
Global, connected, present – Venjakob and its network
Venjakob has always been a family business. It is now run by the third generation of the founding family. But Venjakob: that’s also around 380 employees. They are highly qualified, highly motivated and highly customer-oriented – a strong team that makes all the difference. About 280 of them work for us at our headquarters in Rheda-Wiedenbrück, another 100 are employed at Venjakob Umwelttechnik in Sarstedt and the US company Nutro Inc. in Strongsville, Ohio, as well as in our sales offices in Spain, Canada and Chile. We maintain a dense sales partner network responsible for the distribution of our coating and finishing solutions from Southeast Asia and China to India and North and South America. We’re present in many countries and in almost all industries – be it in the wood, furniture, construction elements or building materials industry, be it in the glass, plastics and metal industry or even in the aerospace industry. Wherever there is industrial coating and customized equipment is required, Venjakob develops a solution.
Innovative, customized, patented many times – Venjakob solutions
Modular plant engineering, tailored to specific requirements with complex process stages precisely coordinated with each other – this requires not just flexibility, but an instinct for innovation. Numerous patents prove that we have this instinct – for example for the V-belt of our coating material recovery system, our CO2 dry ice blasting nozzle, the optimized infrared drying system, to name just a few. Many of these developments not only optimize process sequences or coating results, they also make a significant contribution to conserving resources because they are more environmentally friendly and more sustainable across the board. In addition, they are certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001 and DIN EN ISO 5001 as well as according to the environmental management system DIN EN ISO 14001. We tailor our systems not just to our customers’ specific requirements, but also to the legal and regulatory framework. Here in Germany and Europe, just like everywhere else in the world. This, too, is proof of our expertise.
