What Remix Droge Mortel does

Remix Droge Mortel BV is a Dutch manufacturer of dry mortars (droge mortel) headquartered in Borger, Netherlands, operating as a subsidiary of AGAR Holding BV. The company produces cement-based, lime-based, and polymer-modified mortars under NEN-EN 998-2, BRL 1905, and NEN-EN 206 standards, supplied in 5–25 kg bags, 1000 kg big bags, and bulk silos from two production sites in Ellertshaar and Hardenberg. Its portfolio spans roughly 40 SKUs organized into masonry mortars, trowel mortars (Doorstrijkmortel), thin-bed mortars (Dunbedmortel), joint mortars (Voegmortel), adhesives (Blokkenlijm, tegellijm), concrete products, pouring and anchoring mortars, flooring solutions, primers and additives, garden/landscape products, and tool accessories — plus three flagship specialty systems: the Mortel-Op-Maat® custom formulation engine (1,000+ recipes), ER® earthquake-resistant mortars (TNO-validated to 2.5x heaviest expected quake, NPR 9998 compliant), and the Green Horizon sustainability programme with its Green Collection product line (up to 40% cement reduction, Dubokeur certified).

The business serves Dutch construction professionals — masons, bricklayers, plasterers, floor installers, contractors, project developers, and general contractors — across residential, commercial, civil, renovation, and agricultural segments. Go-to-market is sales-led B2B via regional account managers (Jan Bouwe for Northern Netherlands, Mark Tijhuis for Central Netherlands), an inside sales team reachable at 0599-28 73 60, a dealer network with Colorbox sample support, and an online catalogue at remix.nl. A free expert advisory service (Morteladvies) and detailed project case studies (Crossroads Groningen 650k bricks, Acmesatoren Assen 45m tower, Esdal College Borger, The Wall Beuningen) drive lead conversion. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time product sales with project-volume pricing across strength classes M5 to M25; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

The company is privately held (Dutch BV), generates undisclosed revenue, and has no disclosed venture funding. R&D depth is publicly profiled in trade press (BouwTotaal, May 2025) and supported by a co-development partnership with Daas Baksteen (now Wienerberger) for Chippermortel. Certifications held include KOMO, CE, BSB, ISO 9001, NEN-EN 998-2, BRL 1904, and CUR recommendations 24 and 61.
