Moretec

What Moretec does

Moretec Plastic Machinery B.V. is a privately held Dutch industrial equipment distributor headquartered in Zwaag, Netherlands, operating in the Benelux plastics processing market since 1999. The company functions as a specialized value-added reseller and system integrator, supplying injection molding machines and a comprehensive peripheral equipment ecosystem rather than manufacturing core machinery itself. Moretec's portfolio combines injection molding machine lines (Babyplast mini machines using plunger technique; Bole machines with German-engineered designs manufactured in China, including EK Supreme, FE electric, and DK 2-platen models up to 800 tons) with an extensive peripheral stack: Vismec dryers and raw material transport systems, Moditec and Dreher grinding mills, Alfarobot automation (Phoenix branch pickers through Titan 5-axis robots), Crizaf conveyors and separators, Industrial Frigo and Marse cooling systems, Sysmetric dosing units, Mesutronic metal detection, SchirpMAG magnets, Matsui dust removal, and Chinchio Sergio pelletizers. Add-on modules include the Vismec Supervisor Industry 4.0 web platform with OPC UA ERP integration, the HALO weighing ring for real-time material weighing, and accessories such as the Vismec Oiltrap and Dryfeed systems.

Moretec's go-to-market is direct field sales across the Benelux, supported by an internal demonstration facility in Zwaag where prospects can run live equipment demonstrations and test injections with their own molds. The company offers turn-key project delivery from initial concept through installation, commissioning, after-sales service, and operator training, with both new equipment and second-hand/show-model machines available. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time hardware sales of capital equipment plus professional service attach (installation, commissioning, maintenance, repair, training), with quote-based pricing varying by brand, specification, and configuration. The company also offers dew point and moisture percentage measurement services, and sells or distributes through its branded network only; no public pricing or revenue is disclosed.

The customer base consists of plastics processing manufacturers operating in injection molding, extrusion, extrusion blow molding, and 3D printing, with a secondary focus on medical and pharmaceutical cleanroom applications. Documented customers include Omefa European plastics & tooling, Guru Plastics, Plastifran, and Promatrix, with testimonials emphasizing short communication lines, reliable service, on-time delivery, and a strong price-quality ratio. Moretec is affiliated with the Equip-Plast industry association and the Microcentrum training platform, participates in the Kunststoffenbeurs trade fair (Stand 236, 2025 edition), and maintains an active multilingual digital presence (Dutch, English, French) via moretec.nl, LinkedIn, and Facebook.
