What Stevast Techniek does

Stevast Techniek is a privately held, founder-owned industrial engineering services company headquartered in Beilen, Netherlands, operating across three locations (Beilen HQ, Westerbork workshop, Emmen branch) and serving customers in 11 countries. The company is structured as a single total-solutions provider organized into five departments: Machinebouw (custom machine building and robotics integration), Onderhoud (preventive, corrective, and predictive maintenance and revision), Metaal (certified welding and fabrication in stainless steel, aluminum, and steel, including orbital welding and a Resato waterjet cutting table), Consultancy (maintenance management advisory including Line Performance Scans), and Opleiding (technical training, including the first official Festo FACT center in Europe and NIL-certified welding courses).

The company's commercial model is project-based B2B services with no published pricing, delivered on-site at customer facilities and from in-house workshops, with revenue concentrated in food/feed, pharmaceutical/chemical, recycling/waste management, and high-tech manufacturing. Pricing is determined per project and supported by multi-year contracts in select cases (e.g., a long-term collaboration with Twence). Notable customers include FrieslandCampina, Marne Mosterd, Teijin Aramid, Fokker GKN Aerospace, WMD Drinkwater, Abbott, DOC, DMK, McCain, Kikkoman, Holiday Ice, BASF, Arriva, Fonterra, and the Dutch Ministry of Defence (via the Reservistenwerkgever convenant).

Stevast holds ISO 9001, ISO 3834-2, and Execution Class 4 (EXC 4) certifications, employs approximately 160 FTE as of 2023 (up from 60 in 2017), and has expanded production space to 1,500 m². Go-to-market is consultative, direct sales targeting enterprise industrial clients, supplemented by industry-association memberships (NIDV), technology partnerships (Festo, NIL, Agrifac, Resato), and event-driven brand building (OOM knowledge evenings, TT-circuit Assen, UWV HR networking). The company has been recognized as Drentse Onderneming van het Jaar 2024 and continues to expand its defense-sector presence and training franchise.
