Meet us in the Voortman Experience Center

“Yes, really! That steel processing machine is fully automated and even gives feedback. Sure. You first want to see if you can cut, drill or mill your own product on this machine. Or get a demonstration as an introduction? You can. We organize that for you. Make an appointment and your visit will be prepared in detail. That’s the Voortman Experience Centre.

See you then. Lunch will be ready”.
