Arnott Europe Air Suspension Products is ready to take on the European market following an official Grand Opening event in the Netherlands, which was attended by Jan Hoskam, Council Executive for Economic Affairs in Den Bosch, company staff and around 225 national and international guests.
Since being acquired by its American sister-company, Arnott Inc – well known for its supply of air suspension products for luxury vehicles – Arnott Europe has been hard at work preparing to formally roll out its activities across Europe this year.
“This has involved moving into and fitting out new premises, taking on staff and instilling in them our mission, attending exhibitions, and holding lots of discussions with potential clients”, explains Goswin de Rouw, Joint-CEO (pictured above, right).
“We topped all this work off recently with our first ever European 2015/2016 Product Catalogue, with 400,000 copies in six different languages being sent out to all workshops and wholesalers in the Netherlands, Belgium, the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain.”
Arnott Europe currently employs 14 members of, staff working in various departments, and it has invested in its own R&D department where new solutions and vehicle suspension parts are conceived and developed.
“Each and everyone of our staff shows enthusiasm and energy”, Goswin continues. “Their capacity to think outside the box helps us achieve what we initially thought impossible. The team’s contribution has been a vital part of our success.”
According to Ronald Jacobs, Joint-CEO (pictured above, left), Arnott Europe’s strength lies in the support it can offer in terms of product and assembly. He said: “Goswin and I started out in 2006 to see how we could come up with solutions to problems for air-suspension systems. Not only do we supply the parts, we also remanufacture and fit them ourselves. What’s more, we document the information and share our know-how with anyone who needs it. If anyone comes to us with a question, we can give them a concrete, well-founded answer.”
