Straatman has announced the acquisition of the renowned Kraaijeveld Winches, which specializes in the design and manufacture of high-end winches for marine, dredging and offshore applications.
Acquisition of Kraaijeveld Winches
With this integration, Straatman expands its technical portfolio and reaffirms its commitment to the preservation of Dutch know-how and excellence in marine engineering. The operation seeks to consolidate a network of local companies that share fundamental values: quality, reliability, innovation and service.
For decades, the Netherlands has been synonymous with maritime innovation. The company is aware of this heritage and is therefore committed to keeping Dutch know-how in local hands. The integration of Kraaijeveld perfectly complements Straatman’s existing divisions Mooring Systems and Dredging & Construction.
Together, these three units form a comprehensive offering for the global maritime sector, with products designed and manufactured entirely in the Netherlands.
Kraaijeveld will continue to operate under its original name, with the same team and from its current location. For its customers and employees, this guarantees stability, while the synergy with Straatman opens up new opportunities for development, innovation and international expansion.
