JB Hydraulics BV
JB Hydraulics BV is based in Sliedrecht, on the
industrial estate "Noord-Oost Kwadrant" along the
A15. This location was chosen because it has good
access from various directions.
JB Hydraulics BV’s strength lies in its enthusiastic
team of employees who can provide good advice on the
best hydraulic components to use if you want to make
optimum use of your system.
From modern business premises with all the necessary
facilities, we can handle your order quickly and
accurately. We can provide your orders with their
own customer numbers or packaging material, so that
your work is restricted to a minimum if you have to
forward goods. We can also hold back orders for
later delivery until you require them, thereby
minimising your need for warehouse storage.
“Service is our keyword”
As we have several suppliers for most of the
product groups, we can fulfil your orders quickly and
virtually always in one delivery. Generally speaking,
backorders are delivered within 1 week.
We deliver quickly and on time, thanks to our
24-hour service and courier service, which operates
all day long throughout the region. We also have the
technical know-how to enable us to provide you with
extensive product information and expert advice at all
times. We can advise you on the best and most suitable
products for every system.
Measuring up hose assemblies on site is also among
the possibilities.
History
JB Hydraulics BV went into operation in 1991 from premises with a surface area of around 400 m² on Leemanstraat in Sliedrecht. Owners Henk Jansen and Rob Buijsman had already more than earned their spurs with a wholesale business in hydraulic components. They were sure that they could fill a gap in the market in the Sliedrecht region.
Wim Booij was taken on at the start. With his expertise in the components field, he helped ensure that things got off to a flying start. They were already convinced at the time that it was only possible to survive as a wholesaler if you had a wide range of high-grade products, a solid computer system, linked with good stock management and staff with the necessary knowledge and experience. Thanks partly to competitive price agreements with producers and suppliers and high-quality products, the venture was a success.
In 1993, a number of employees were added to the workforce.
In 1998, JB Rubber & Industrie BV was founded, based on the idea that the industry package would be a good addition to the hydraulic one. With a workforce of 15 employees, the premises on Leemanstraat quickly became too small and a location was sought to accommodate further growth.
In 1999, the company moved into the newbuild premises at Sportlaan 201 in Sliedrecht, with a surface area of 1200 m². Here, the business grew further, to 25 employees.
In 2008, the company had again outgrown the premises. It was decided that JB Rubber & Industrie BV would continue operating from a new location (over the road) in its own premises (surface area 250 m²).
In addition, the current premises were expanded in 2010 with a 300 m² extension. This was to increase the workshop for assembling hoses and create a separate area for stocking tubes and pipes, which would make it quite a bit easier to load and unload the tubes and pipes.
Since the beginning of 2015, JB Rubber & Industrie BV has been housed in larger premises at Sportlaan 125 in Sliedrecht (2 buildings next to JB Hydraulics BV).
