Roosen Industries

What Roosen Industries does

Roosen Industries is a privately held Dutch contract manufacturer founded in 1971/1972 by Harry Roosen and currently led by second-generation CEO Gandert Roosen (since 2012). The company designs and supplies turn-key engineering, metalwork, and mechanical assembly solutions, operating a one-stop-shop model that combines CNC turning, CNC milling, CNC laser cutting, robotic and manual welding, CNC bending, and mechatronics assembly under a single group of wholly-owned subsidiaries. It serves OEM customers across six vertical end-markets: medical, nuclear, agriculture, transport and logistics, special machines / machine building, and food industries, with PPAP-grade quality documentation and ISO 9001 / ISO 14001 certification across all facilities. Differentiated capabilities include an ISO 6 cleanroom with PPC solvent cleaning (Grade 2 guarantee), cobot-loaded CNC machines enabling 24/7 unmanned production in Europe, a seven-axis corner-welding robot, and 40 certified welders handling constructions up to 12 metres.

The business operates a hybrid Europe-Asia production model: automated facilities in Eersel and Valkenswaard (Netherlands) and Arendonk (Belgium), supplemented by a wholly-owned CNC machining factory in Kanpur, India (operational since 2006, with a new European-standard factory opened in 2023). Revenue is generated through serial-production contracts for machined parts, sheet metal assemblies, welded constructions, and mechatronic end-products, with lot sizes ranging from tens to thousands per month. Pricing is entirely project-specific and quote-based; surface treatments are coordinated through external partners as part of total supply-chain responsibility. Customers are managed through dedicated Dutch account managers regardless of production location, with all communication routed through a single point of contact. Disclosed annual turnover exceeds €35 million, supported by 250+ employees across the four production sites.

The group has pursued growth through both organic expansion and acquisitions since 2012 (De Roo Metaal, Smits Machinefabriek, FBFC small components, plus Roosen BPL and AST Suspension, which develop and sell proprietary handling and suspension products). Two sub-brands — Roosen BPL (handling systems) and AST Suspension (automotive and industrial suspension products) — operate as proprietary product businesses alongside the core contract-manufacturing franchise.

Revenue model

1. Metal component manufacturing and assembly: Roosen Industries manufactures and supplies high-quality metal semi-finished products and assembled end products (components and/or complete products) to OEM customers across multiple industry sectors. Revenue is generated through the production and sale of machined parts (turning, milling), sheet metal work (laser cutting, bending), welded assemblies, and mechatronic assemblies, with additional surface treatment services coordinated through external partners. Serial production focus with lot sizes ranging from tens to thousands per month.

Core offering

Roosen Industries is a serial-production co-supplier to OEM customers, manufacturing custom high-quality metal components and assembled end products (machined parts, sheet metalwork, welded and mechatronic assemblies) across four production locations in the Netherlands, Belgium, and India. The company operates a one-stop-shop covering CNC turning, CNC milling, CNC laser cutting, welding (robot and manual), CNC bending, mechatronics assembly, and ISO 6 cleanroom cleaning, with surface treatments coordinated through external partners.

Product overview

Roosen Industries is a series production supplier of high-quality metal components and assembled end products, operating a one-stop-shop model with core competencies in machining (CNC turning, CNC milling), sheet metal work (laser cutting, CNC bending, welding), and mechatronics (assembly, testing, packaging). The company combines automated manufacturing in Europe (Netherlands, Belgium) with cost-effective production in India (Kanpur). Additional services include cleanroom operations for nuclear, optical, and semiconductor industries, plus surface treatment coordination (chemical treatment, hardening, painting). The portfolio includes CNC Milling, CNC Turning, Laser Cutting, Welding, CNC Bending, Mechatronics, and Cleanroom Services as core offerings, with Surface Treatment as an add-on module. Two subsidiaries—Roosen BPL (handling systems) and AST Suspension (suspension products)—operate under their own brands.

Direct peers

• NTS Group: Dutch contract manufacturer specializing in mechatronics and precision systems for OEM customers across high-tech sectors. Highly comparable to Roosen's mechatronics assembly and serial-production model serving medical, semiconductor, and industrial OEM clients.
• VDL Steelweld: Netherlands-based metal fabrication and welding specialist serving OEMs with laser cutting, bending, and welded assemblies. Directly comparable to Roosen's Roosen Laser & Welding operations in Arendonk, Belgium.
• KMWE Precision Machining: Dutch precision machining company serving aerospace, medical, and industrial OEM customers with high-tolerance CNC turning and milling. Directly comparable to Roosen Machining's CNC operations in Valkenswaard.
• Wila Group: Dutch contract metal manufacturer combining machining, sheet metal work, and assembly for industrial OEMs. Closely comparable business model to Roosen Industries' one-stop-shop contract manufacturing offering.

Broad incumbents

• Benteler International: Large Austria-based metal processing group with components, modules, and automotive/industrial solutions. Overlaps with Roosen in metal components and welded assemblies but operates at significantly larger scale and broader geographic scope.
• Martinrea International: Canadian-headquartered manufacturer of metal components, assemblies, and modules primarily for automotive OEMs. Comparable to Roosen's contract manufacturing model for transport and logistics customers but at much larger scale.
• Teksid: Italian metal components manufacturer (part of Stellantis ecosystem) producing iron, aluminum castings and machined components. Overlaps with Roosen in metal components for industrial OEMs but with different primary processes (casting vs. machining/sheet metal).
• Hirschvogel: Germany-based specialist in forged and machined steel and aluminum components serving automotive and industrial OEMs. Comparable to Roosen's metal component manufacturing but focused on forged parts at much larger volumes.
• Aalberts Industries: Dutch-listed industrial group with multiple business lines in metal processing, surface treatment, and mechatronic components. Overlaps with Roosen across machining, mechatronics, and finishing coordination but operates as a broad portfolio rather than focused OEM supplier.

Others

• Bodycote: UK-listed provider of heat treatment and surface treatment services to metal product manufacturers. Adjacent rather than directly competitive, but represents an alternative model for the finishing services Roosen currently outsources to external partners.
