Motrac Industries, with its locations in Zutphen and Papendrecht, the Netherlands, and Willich, Germany, employs 110 staff and has nearly 70 years of experience in hydraulic engineering. In recent years, the company has successfully expanded into electric drive systems. Motrac Industries is the distributor for Linde Hydraulics in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Poland, and maintains supplier relationships with leading parties. This forms the basis for the successful development, construction, delivery and repair of hydraulic and/or electric drive systems. In addition, hydraulic manifolds are produced at the Willich site under the name IMAV Hydraulik and specific solutions for inland navigation are supplied and maintained from Papendrecht under the name Hydromarine. Motrac Industries’ systems are used worldwide across the agricultural, maritime, mobile and industrial sectors.
Motrac Industries has been acquired by Anders Invest, a Dutch-based private equity firm focused on investing in and partnering with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Dutch manufacturing and technical sectors.
The transaction is expected to bring substantial benefits. Motrac Industries aims to fulfill its full potential with Anders Invest as the new shareholder, while for Royal Reesink this is a step that aligns with their strategic focus on core activities.
