We know various disciplines in our field service: Installation, Commissioning, Service and Maintenance. Different branches of sport with their own expertise, we would love to tell you more about them!

Our Field Service Engineers are all craftsmen through and through. We are an international team and work with different nationalities to meet our customers' needs.

We know our machines and associated parts inside and out. Moreover, we are the face of Voortman!

As a team, we are not often complete, but once a year, during the Field Engineer Day, we come together with the entire team. This is always on the last working day of the year. On this day, we have breakfast together, attend presentations, and in the afternoon there is time for a fun activity. But even during work, we know how to find each other and we call each other when we encounter problems, so we learn from one another!
