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.

This compact crane is an example of one of our innovations.
