FOLLOWING the opening of Hi-Force Brazil in May 2008, the announcement of the opening of Hi-Force China in September 2008 and the revelation of the construction of a new multi-million-dollar Hi-Force UK Headquarters scheduled for completion in early 2010, Hi-Force Netherlands has announced the next step in expanding its operation in Europe.

At the end of June 2008 Hi-Force Netherlands relocated to a larger, more modern premises. Centrally located in Strijen, near the motorway’s A15, A16, A17 and A29 and providing easy and quick access from all directions, the new location offers over 300 sq m of warehouse facilities, a fully equipped workshop including test facilities and 80 sq m of office space.
Hi-Force Netherlands now holds an ever increasing stock of hydraulic cylinders, pumps, jacks and tools, including a “state of the art” range of hydraulic torque wrenches along with accessories and spare parts. Other items such as hydraulic stud bolt tensioners, hydrotest pumps, crimpers and cutter tools will be added to the stock shortly.
Mar Noordhoek, managing director Hi-Force Netherlands states: “The move is part of our response to the challenges of strong customer demand and our increasing order levels resulting in increased staff numbers and the desire to provide a better means of support to all of our valued customers. Our new facilities will provide Hi-Force customers with the huge advantage of immediate delivery from stock. We are aiming for next day delivery for most of our products and certainly the common fast moving items that we take orders for every day. Furthermore, our workshop will service and repair both Hi-Force and “competitor brands” of hydraulic equipment within the shortest possible period of time.”
The Hi-Force Holland team is very proud of its achievements so far, but is also looking forward to a considerable amount of growth, in the years ahead, as a result of this expansion.
