Bewo

What Bewo does

Bewo Cutting Systems B.V. is a Netherlands-based industrial machinery manufacturer, founded in 1945 and headquartered in Waalwijk, that designs and builds cutting machines and integrated post-processing lines for metal tubes and profiles. Its product range comprises three automatic sawing machines — the Single (electric saw for tube diameters 8-90mm, up to 1,500 pieces/hour), the Sigma (high-productivity saw capable of cutting up to six profiles simultaneously at up to 15,000 pieces/hour), and the Omega (automatic saw for larger construction profiles up to 102mm) — together with the long-established CPO 250 and CPO 315 manual circular saws sold under the description of being the most copied machines in the world. Around these machines, Bewo wraps modular finishing modules for deburring (up to 7,000 products/hour), chamfering, punching, length measurement with Cpk/SPC quality data, integrated tube cleaning, and automated robotic packing, with ERP barcode integration and Industry 4.0 compatibility enabling traceability and automated rejection of out-of-tolerance products.

The company delivers each cutting line as a turnkey system built to order in its 3,000+ square metre workshop, with on-site installation, multilingual operator training, preventive maintenance, and ongoing process optimisation. It sells into five primary verticals — automotive (precision tubes with traceability and just-in-time delivery), construction and infrastructure (structural tubes via the Omega), tube manufacturers (high-output processing lines), metal wholesalers (flexible small-batch cutting with 24-hour spare-parts delivery), and the furniture industry (non-standard profiles requiring scratch-free handling). Distribution combines direct enterprise sales, a dedicated e-commerce webshop for CPO machines and spare parts, and a global network of authorised distributors and agents across Europe, the Americas, and Asia.

Since 2008 Bewo has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nivora Holding B.V., a Dutch foundation-structured holding whose portfolio of metalworking machine manufacturers employs more than 400 people and generates turnover in excess of €75 million. The Nivora structure provides long-term strategic continuity and operational independence but no public visibility into Bewo-specific revenue, headcount, or earnings.
