More than a century
of metalworking
From structural work to precision sheet metal — since 1919
Assink & Schipholt started out in 1919 in structural work, sheet metal and sanitary installations. What was once broad craftsmanship for companies and private customers grew along with industry in Twente. Today we focus on precision sheet metal and structures for machine building and industry.
The technology changed, the principle did not: making parts that are right and that fit the application they are meant for.
Where sheet metal used to be laid out, cut and welded by hand, we now have modern techniques for laser cutting, tube laser cutting, press braking, robot welding and laser welding. From individual stainless steel parts to assembled sheet metal work: we carry out production and finishing in house wherever possible.
We keep the craft close as well. As an SBB-accredited training company we train new professionals ourselves. That is how we combine more than a century of experience with today's production technology.
