What Olof Schuur B.v. does

Olof Schuur B.V. is a Dutch installation services and engineering company founded in 1973 and headquartered in Anna Paulowna, North Holland. The company designs, installs, commissions, and maintains electrical, heating, cooling, refrigeration, ventilation, plumbing, and measurement-and-control systems, with a primary vertical specialization in the agricultural sector (including bulb cultivation, horticulture, livestock facilities, and farm worker housing). It also serves private residential customers and commercial/light-industrial clients in the Kop van Noord-Holland region through a field-sales, consultative GTM motion. Olof Schuur holds more than 14 technical certifications — including InstallQ, SCIOS Scope 1/2/7A/7C, STEK, BRL100 F-gassen, NVKL, CO-Vrij, and ATAG dealer status — that enable legally required safety-critical work and constitute a meaningful regulatory moat.

The company has evolved beyond pure installation services into proprietary hardware manufacturing. In 2024, it launched the SyngroTherm industrial heat pump — a CE-certified, in-house-built unit using R290 natural refrigerant with dual-mode simultaneous cooling (100kW) and heating (120kW) at COP>4.5, featuring Bock compressors and Vacon variable-frequency drives. It also commercialized the Olof Schuur Controller (OSC), a proprietary PLC-based climate and energy management system customized per agricultural customer's processes. The company manufactures its own distributors and control cabinets and writes its own PLC software, enabling flexible custom installations. In April 2024 it deployed an Energy Management System (EMS) for the Agro Star migrant-housing project, managing distributed energy assets (batteries, PV, EV chargers, HVAC) across 36 residential units.

The business operates on a two-tier revenue model: (1) one-time project-based installation revenue for design-build-commissioning work, and (2) recurring service and maintenance contracts including SCIOS periodic inspections, CO-certification, and F-gas maintenance. Hardware sales of SyngroTherm units add a third stream. Pricing is project-specific (quotes on request), with no public pricing or subscription tiers. The company is family-owned, employs 11-50 people (with 10+ active openings), completed its first acquisition (TIB Rood) in 2024, and operates exclusively within the Netherlands with no disclosed funding rounds or external institutional investment.
