Kromwijk Elektrotechniek

What Kromwijk Elektrotechniek does

Kromwijk Elektrotechniek bv is a Dutch electrical installation contractor headquartered in Woerden, Netherlands, founded in 1990 and privately owned by co-directors Patrick Voorbij and Adriaan van der Neut since their full buyout from founders Ans and Ton Kromwijk in 2016. The company designs, engineers, installs, and maintains electro-technical systems for commercial, industrial, healthcare, education, food-processing, retail, and residential clients across the Netherlands. Core service lines include light and power installations, data and telematics networks, fire detection and security systems, intruder alarms, camera surveillance, home automation (domotica), and 24/7 maintenance.

The company's technology and product surface centers on conventional electro-technical execution, supplemented by a sustainability-oriented offering that includes solar panel installation, EV charging infrastructure through its wholly-owned subsidiary ConnectNed (hardware, backoffice billing, energy management, national dealer network), and BREEAM-NL certified sustainable-building work — including delivery of what the company describes as Europe's most sustainable and largest Lidl distribution center. Proprietary elements include an in-house training school with a WhatsApp-based micro-learning app and energy-management monitoring services that provide recurring insight into customer installations.

Revenue is generated primarily through project-based quotations for one-time installation work (typical durations six months to two years per major project), supplemented by recurring 24/7 maintenance contracts and ConnectNed subscription services for EV charging. The go-to-market is relationship-driven and field-based: Kromwijk positions itself as a collaborative technical partner engaged early in construction projects, executing nationwide with a group structure spanning Kromwijk (Woerden), Elektro16 (Maarsbergen), and Impuls Elektro (Maarssen, acquired November 2023). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; commercial work is delivered directly by Kromwijk's own field teams or via subcontractor partnerships on larger builds.
