History

The first unit of our system was manufactured by a German production partner. Following advice from Paul in ’t Velt, Senior Consultant, we transitioned to a Dutch manufacturing partner to optimize eligibility for RVO funding. This creates a strong Dutch value chain consisting of a Dutch innovator, a Dutch production partner, and Dutch customers.

As a result, references to the former German producer may still appear on our website. All future units will be manufactured in the Netherlands and will incorporate an updated design featuring our latest technological innovations.

Upon reviewing the project, an RVO innovation advisor concluded that the innovation phase had been successfully completed and provided guidance on relevant subsidy schemes and tax incentives available for the next stage of growth.
