What Wildeboer Components GmbH does

Wildeboer Bauteile GmbH, operating as Wildeboer Components GmbH, is a privately held German manufacturer headquartered in Weener, Lower Saxony, that has been developing and producing HVAC and building-services components since 1939. The company supplies four product categories — fire protection and smoke extraction dampers, air distribution components (electronic and mechanical volume flow controllers, pressure controllers, flow limiters), building control systems, and noise protection/sound attenuators — to a B2B customer base of building services engineers, HVAC plant manufacturers, architects, construction companies, and installation contractors across Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, the broader EU, and export markets including the Middle East.

Its core product portfolio includes the electronic DKpro and DRpro pressure controllers and the VRE1 electronic volume flow controller, all featuring bus-compatible integration via BACnet, Modbus, and MP-Bus protocols with control accuracies in the ±5% to ±15% band, alongside the mechanical, power-free VRL1 volume flow limiter. Wildeboer holds a proprietary measurement technique for total pressure difference across damper blades used in its VRE1 line and has incrementally expanded size ranges — most recently expanding DKpro to 39 nominal sizes in March 2026 and extending VKpro/VKup volume flow controller ranges in the same period. The company carries company-wide certifications to ISO 9001:2015, ISO 50001:2018, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2023, product-level hygiene certificates, and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) from Institut Bauen und Umwelt e.V., and is a co-author of the VDI EE 2077 Sheet 4.1 expert recommendation on consumption-based billing of ventilation costs.

The business operates a sales-led go-to-market model with a direct field sales force, dedicated technical planning advisors for fire protection and ventilation, regional offices in Utrecht (Netherlands/Belgium), Leipzig (eastern Germany), and Ulm (southern Germany), and a digital self-service layer in the Wildeboer Connect platform (configurator, project management, E-Learning, order tracking). Revenue is anchored in hardware sales with a smaller, recurring software-platform component; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is family-controlled via managing director Dr. Jürgen Wildeboer, with no public funding rounds, acquisitions, or institutional shareholders identified.

Core offering

Wildeboer develops, manufactures and supplies HVAC components for fire protection and smoke extraction (dampers), air distribution (volume flow controllers, pressure controllers, flow limiters), building control systems, and noise protection (sound attenuators). Its portfolio spans electronic and mechanical controllers, with the Wildeboer Connect digital platform enabling configuration, project management and order tracking. Primary customers are building services engineers, plant manufacturers, architects and construction companies.

Product overview

Wildeboer Components GmbH is a manufacturer of building systems components organized into four core product categories: fire protection and smoke extraction (dampers and control equipment), air distribution (volume flow controllers, pressure controllers, and flow limiters), building control systems (intelligent software for safety and efficiency), and noise protection (sound attenuators and splitters). The air distribution portfolio includes electronic controllers (DKpro, DRpro, VRE1) with bus-compatible connectivity (BACnet, Modbus, MP-Bus), mechanical limiters (VRL1), and expandable volume flow controllers (VRpro, VKpro, VRup). The digital platform Wildeboer Connect integrates product configuration, project management, E-Learning, and order tracking as a unified system. Products are supported by accessories including sound attenuators (SKE-V, SRC) and are certified for hygiene and environmental standards.
