And before you know it, it’s December again…
Another year has flown by, and we’ve accomplished so much together.
A perfect moment to look back on the past year with the management team.
2024 is a special year for our companies: Jan van Dam Machine Transport celebrates its 35th anniversary, while Jan van Dam Global Machine Logistics marks 15 years of operation. Together, we represent over 120 years of experience in the transport sector, with more than 35 years of specialized focus on machine transport. This milestone is a perfect opportunity to reflect on what we have built and to look ahead to the future.
Our strength lies in calmness, trust, and innovation. With a dedicated team, a wealth of knowledge, and the mindset that "impossible" doesn’t exist, we continue to provide tailored solutions every day. Whether it’s machine transport, storage, installation, or industrial relocations, we are ready with expertise and customized service.
A few years ago, we had the unique opportunity to purchase a commercial building on the industrial estate in Oudewater, which had previously been used as a truck garage. This gave us the idea to relocate and professionalize our workshop and semi-wash facility.
By now, we’re somewhat known for our continuous innovation. Not only in our specialization in machine transport and the training of our employees, but also with the vehicles that transport the machines.
We are excited to announce that our fleet has been expanded with a unique trailer, the first Euro low loader of its kind in the Benelux!
BluePrint Automation has been a loyal partner for many years, and we’re very pleased about that. They produce custom-made packaging systems and deliver them worldwide. That's where we come in, organizing the export, transport, and delivery.
For Jan van Dam Machine Transport based in Oudewater, investing in sustainability is a natural choice. The specialist in logistics challenges has been preparing for today's demands for years. Owner Jan van Dam considers the new Volvo FH Electric a necessity. 'This is the first one, but most likely not the last.'
Jan Van Dam Machine Transport has invested in a new, multi-purpose Volvo truck. The vehicle was delivered in mid-October by Van Dijk Trucks of Woerden, and the cab was supplied by another loyal partner of Jan van Dam: CCH BV of Halsteren. With this latest addition to the fleet, Jan Van Dam Machine Transport can literally go in any direction it chooses.
Over a period of more than five years, Jan van Dam Machine Transport has managed to install no fewer than 150 machines at 247TailorSteel, which manufactures custom-cut metal sheets, tubes and bends. This special milestone was recently celebrated with cakes for 247TailorSteel’s employees.
If you had asked Jan van Dam that fifteen years ago, he would have said yes. But we have since discovered that many things are possible in that area.
At Jan van Dam Machine Transport, the development of a new truck takes time. Time to deliberate, come up with a design, scrap it and start again, weigh things up, come to a conclusion… That process can take as long as a year, but then you end up with something really worthwhile. In this case, a brand new, unique 200-ton metre crane that – characteristic of the company – has been completely developed in-house with the future in mind.
