혁신에는 대담한 정신이 필요합니다

Verder의 이야기는 다음을 증명하는 이야기입니다. 창립 정신, 용기, 혁신적 사고, 미래지향적 기업가 정신이 최선의 방식으로 함께 활용되며 회사가 수십 년 동안 계속 헌신할 수 있는 공통된 동기가 있다면, 아무리 작은 것도 진정으로 위대하게 발전할 잠재력이 있습니다.

Verder의 이러한 내적인 동기 부여는 한편으로는 기술 혁신을 개발하고 다른 한편으로는 고객의 문제를 해결하여 고객의 성공을 가능하게 하는 설립자 가족의 핵심적인 책무입니다.

열정적인 기업가 André Verder가 설립한 이래로 이 관심사는 회사의 역사를 따라 계속되어 왔습니다.

옛날 이야기

회사가 60년도 넘는 세월 이전에 산업용 펌프 공급 업체로서 운영을 시작했을 때, André에게 기술에는 정신적인 경계가 없으며, 지리적으로도 경계가 없다는 사실은 분명했습니다. André는 한 단계씩 자신의 회사를 국제화할 수 있도록 기초를 쌓았으며, 그 당시에는 동유럽으로 확장하는 대담한 결정을 내렸습니다. 동시에, 이러한 선견지명으로 회사를 순수한 유통 업체에서 세계에서 가장 존경받고 혁신적이며 용감한 기술 제조업체 중 하나로 지속적인 발전을 꾀하는 방향을 설정했습니다.

2005년 아들 Andries가 회사 관리를 맡은 후에도, André가 가족 사업에 부여한 DNA인 고객 지향, 프로세스 이해, 노하우의 전형적인 조합은 Verder의 핵심으로 남아 있습니다. 그룹은 두 가지 전략적 중추에 따라 조정되었습니다. Verder Scientific과 Verder Liquids가 그것입니다. 이러한 방식으로, 고객에 집중할 수 있도록 더욱 개선되었습니다. 두 사업부 모두에서 제품 포트폴리오가 지속적으로 성장하여 고객 인지도는 새로운 수준에 도달했습니다. 그룹은 지속적인 유기적 성장 외에도 회사 구성 및 인수를 통해 의미 있고 전략적으로 중요한 영역으로 비즈니스 활동을 확장하기 시작했습니다. Pindustry와 함께 Verder는 마침내 세 번째 사업부를 확보하여 선견지명을 가지고 새롭고 유망한 기술에 투자하고 있습니다.

_{Vleuten은 항상 당사의 본사가 있는 곳이었습니다. 마을의 역사와 Verder의 50주년을 축하하기 위해 André Verder는 2009년 David Mackaay의 예술 작품 'Prophecies of Light Advancing Light'를 기부했습니다. 그것은 Leidsche Rijn 지역의 개발이 건설 이후 해당 지역에 가져온 진보와 번영을 나타냅니다.}

요점은 다음과 같습니다. 오랜 세월 동안, Verder는 먼 길을 걸어왔습니다. 그러나 오늘날 회사가 취하는 모든 비즈니스 행동에는 회사의 태도, 동기 부여 및 초창기의 가치가 여전히 중요한 역할을 합니다. 그리고 가장 좋은 점은, 아직 해야 할 일이 너무 많으며, Verder의 이야기는 막 시작되었다는 것입니다.

The Verder Story Begins

In 1959, entrepreneur André Verder starts his business, Verder Vleuten BV, the Dutch province of Utrecht. For the first eleven years of its history, the fast-growing company focuses on Dutch business and specializes in the distribution of industrial pumps. From the early days on, Verder earns the reputation of a company with a special understanding of the technologically feasible. A company, which orients towards the customer and always strives to understanding the customers' business and processes requirements. The characteristics that have distinguished Verder to this day.

Verder Ventures Across the Border

In 1970, Verder begins to expand into the European markets. The start is made with a subsidiary in Aartselaar, Belgium. In 1973, Verder enters another core market, Germany, followed by France in 1984, Great Britain in 1992, and Italy in 2007. Also two Joint Ventures are established for the Dutch market: KNF-Verder in 1991 and Prominent-Verder in 1992. Today, Verder has offices all over Europe’s major markets. This includes Eastern Europe: Shortly after the fall of the "Iron Curtain", the group also extended its business there, with representative offices in Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Romania.

Verder Enters New Business Segment

In 1989, Verder acquires Retsch and adds quality control and research to the portfolio. The company's founder, F. Kurt Retsch, applied for his first patent in the field of comminution technology in 1923: A mechanized mortar grinder that became a household name worldwide as the "Retsch Mill". In the following years, Verder adds particle analysis systems to the offering and founds Retsch Technology. This laboratory and analysis segment is set to develop into an important mainstay in the coming decades.

Verder Establishes Reputation as an Innovator

Market firsts, like a peristaltic hose pump that sets new standards for industrial pumping, a high-energy ball mill with temperature control options, or a particle analyzer which measures particle morphology in 3D are proof of Verder's uncompromising commitment to progress. Year after year, Verder develops and launches products based on latest technological advances - like a range of state-of-the-art pumps and analyzers with loT connectivity.

Verder expands pump manufacturing capabilities

Parallel to the Scientific acquisitions, Verder also acquired several pump manufacturing brands in order to serve the customer base even better. It started with the acquisition of MtP where several Verderair diaphragm pumps are manufactured, followed Microdos, leader in small peristaltic and solenoid pumps. After that Packo was acquired in 2015, laying the foundation for the venture into more hygienic pump applications. That effort was strengthened by the subsequent acquisition of JEC in 2018. In between also Ponndorf was added to the group to extend the range of peristaltic pumping solutions. All these efforts solidified the position of Verder Liquids as the leading pump manufacturer.

Verder Goes Global

Around the Millennium, Verder begins to expand into overseas markets to directly serve customers in further major economies. The first subsidiary outside Europe is established in Japan in 1999. From 2000 onwards, Verder is also active in the USA. Finally, in 2006, important steps are taken for the increasingly important and dynamic Asian business: A liaison office in China becomes the bridgehead for all activities in the ASEAN region. Since 2019, Verder is also present in Brazil.

A Headquarter for the Group

The rapid diversification and expansion of the preceding years leads to the establishment of a powerful umbrella organization, the Verder Croup, in 2005. Apart from steering its subsidiaries, the Group Headquarter assumes important cross-divisional tasks and services for the individual companies. In particular, it looks after the realization of synergies and has overall responsibility for group-wide strategy development and corporate governance. This overarching organization moves into new headquarters in the Netherlands at the Vleuten site.

Verder Grows Into the Scientific Segment

With the incorporation of Eltra and Carbolite in 2012, the Verder Scientific division is established, comprising the group’s activities in the laboratory and analytical segment. Further acquisitions follow: Cero in 2013, ATM in 2015, Qness in 2018 and Microtrac in 2019. The companies evolve Into today's segments of Verder Scientific: Retsch, Eltra, Carbolite Cero, Microtrac MRB and QATM. Present worldwide, with a broad portfolio in the fields of sample preparation and solids analysis.

Verder Founds Investment Arm Pindustry

In 2014, Verder founds its subsidiary Pindustry. Its mission: to support innovative startups and companies in order to accelerate the development of new technologies. In the same year, the company invests in two promising companies: Resato, which develops high-pressure cutting machines as well as high-pressure refueling systems for hydrogen vehicles, and Aerox, a manufacturer of industrial odor control solutions. In 2022 a majority stake was acquired in Valveco, a Dutch supplier of valves, actuators, pipe couplings, vent caps, flanges and services for the maritime and offshore sector.
