On Wednesday, April 29, we had the pleasure of welcoming ๐ ๐ฟ. ๐๐ฅ. ๐๐๐ถ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ป and the original representatives of the former Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations, ๐ ๐ฟ. ๐. ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ๐๐๐ and ๐ ๐ฟ. ๐ฅ. ๐๐๐๐บ๐ฎ๐ป๐ป, at Hytrans.
Mr. Kuiken, director in the past of the former company Kuiken, played a key role in initiating the development of our submersible pump activities for the Dutch Fire Brigades in 1988. This project has proven to be the foundation of our systems today. His continuing drive and enthusiasm are truly inspiring and remain the same as when it all started.
Together with Mr. Theuws and Mr. Husmann, who were closely involved from the Ministry side, their collaboration ultimately led to the development of the first HydroSubs.
With 200 units delivered at the time, this formed the basis of what is now our HS150 and CombiContainer solution and, in many ways, our entire product line.
Our three visitors were above 80 years old but still highly interested in fire and disaster fighting.
During their visit, we connected the history of Hytrans to our current business: reflecting on how far we have come, while recognizing the strong foundation that was built decades ago.
We also made a tour of our facilities.
The group photo attached showcases the HS150 products, on how it started and the latest version of this highly versatile product.
Moments like these remind us that innovation is built on experience, collaboration, and vision.
Mr. Kuiken, Mr. Theuws, and Mr. Husmann; Thank you for your leadership in the past and thank you for your visit to Hytrans.
