Success Stories: Erbi

Erbi’s strength is to produce and to deliver aesthetic and functional products at a large quality level. In Alphen aan den Rijn Erbi produces kitchen worktops and tops to be used for other interior and/or exterior applications.

Erbi, strong with 130 employees, designs and manufactures worktops. Erbi worktops are available in at least 800 kitchen stores in The Netherlands.

Erbi's production facility is impressive. The production is completely automated in order to obtain constant high quality products. For the finishing of the edges and borders, Erbi invested in a OD Flex Edge & Border Finishing robot installation of Optidrive.

"We are very glad with the choice of the OD Flex Edge finishing.  This product is really a major step forward for Erbi.  You can see that this products is engineered and tested into all it's detailed, it is, without doubt, proven technology.  The constant high finishing quality is very important for us.  On top of that the profitability is even better than expected” - Piet Kroon – Senior engineer, member of board of directors.
