Extrusion International 3-2026

19 Extrusion International 3/2026 expansion of this new business unit. He has been re- sponsible for the sale of UWP systems for years and knows the subject matter in great detail. He also has a team of former colleagues and consultants from the plastics industry on board to support the Kreyen- borg team. New partnerships have already emerged from this global network. "For years“, concedes Gielen „we had to reject cus- tomer requests for spare parts and service for UWP and refer them to others,“ and he explains why Krey- enbor is now re-entering this area of the business: „As a medium-sized company, we can and we want to close the gap in the market that large companies cannot afford to ll at the scale that customers would like, due to their concentration on large-scale systems and especially on new business.“ Kreyenborg therefore focuses on the following services: accessible personal contacts, fast delivery times enabled by avialability of compatible spare parts from their location in the Münsterland region, technical advice for existing systems, and and overall high level of quality, which Kreyenborg has always stood for. „Our aim,“ says Gielen, „is to offer cus- tomers service that has thus far been lacking in the market. Working with us should help them to reduce downtimes, and to be able to operate their plants more economically." Kreyenborg has a history of technikcal expertise in the plastics sector and mechanical engineering, as well as a good understanding of processes, and with its product portfolio is well-positioned for expansion into the aftermarket business. Their Infrared technol- ogy business for plastics and food won’t be affected directly by the expansion. However, Kreyenborg’s plastics sector will benefit overall from the expansion in the spare parts sector, because the company is also investing in the technical center (trial center) and IT systems, among other areas.
