What Helvoet Holding B.V. does

Helvoet Holding B.V. is a precision polymer and elastomer injection moulding manufacturer founded in 1939 and headquartered in Tilburg, Netherlands, with additional production operations in Pune, India. The company operates more than 250 injection moulding machines globally and produces over one billion complex parts annually, employing 800+ people. Its core manufacturing capabilities span thermoplastics, thermosets, liquid silicone rubber (LSR), 2K moulding, metal-to-plastic conversion, and proprietary Pocket Grinding of phenolic housings, supported by 40+ dedicated application development engineers.

Helvoet serves four primary verticals — Health Tech, Mobility, Food Tech, and New Energy — and holds ISO 13485 (medical), IATF 16949 (automotive), and FSSC 22000 (food safety) certifications, qualifying it as a tier-1 supplier in regulated end markets. Its product portfolio includes fuel pump impellers and housings (supplied since 1993 and 1999 respectively), microfluidic components developed through a Flow Alliance / Micronit partnership, and emerging hydrogen, EV, and energy storage components.

The business model is B2B contract manufacturing with multi-year strategic customer partnerships, co-development engineering, and long product life cycles. Revenue is generated through volume production of high-precision moulded parts, with the company projecting approximately $60M in annual revenue contribution to acquirer Kimball Solutions in FY2027. In 2026, Helvoet was acquired by Kimball Solutions for approximately $103M, concurrently divesting its European mobility activities (Belgium and Poland) to Callista Group as part of a strategic refocusing toward Health Tech and other higher-growth verticals.
