Industrial movements

Complete chains rely on factories with optimally performing production lines. But even machines cannot always run continuously. Sometimes a relocation or maintenance means that parts of a production line have to be moved or replaced, as a result of which the production line is temporarily unable to operate at full capacity. We understand that in such cases what is most important is: effectiveness.

Effectiveness

When the most important part of a production company has been taken out of operation, time literally means money. Thus the shutting down of the production capacity for longer than is strictly necessary quickly has major consequences. Therefore, in situations where machines or entire production lines are moved or relocated, it is crucial to work with the best people and equipment.

In recent years, M.J. van Riel has made sure that this is exactly what we have to offer. We have the knowledge and equipment that you need to carefully manage, plan and carry out your industrial relocations and moves, right down to the smallest of details, all under one roof. This means that we can always guarantee the greatest possible effectiveness.

And last but not least: your risk of damage is lower when you work with us! Don’t take our word for it, please feel free to contact any of the clients for whom we have moved machines in recent years or get in touch with our insurance company. You will be pleasantly surprised, because Van Riel has had an unprecedented low damage rate in recent years during its industrial relocations and moves.

Multiple disciplines

Taking care of industrial relocations is a discipline that we have greatly developed in recent years, mainly due to the fact that we seemed to have a knack for these kinds of projects. Within this area of work, all our capacities and specialisms are brought together in a quite superb way.

Moving and/or relocating single machines or installations, or even complete production facilities, requires so much more than just disassembling and re-assembling. A successful relocation or move needs multiple disciplines that all need to fit with the solutions with which we have more than 80 years of experience.

Brainpower

To ensure that the downtime of your production line is not a second longer than necessary, we combine all our strengths to make industrial moves as effective as possible. Minimising downtime and damage is our main focus. By sitting down with our client to carefully consider matters in advance and determine a smart approach, we can draw up a plan that does not overlook the minutest of details – a streamlined plan that incorporates time/space factors and techniques that immediately pay for itself in valuable time savings.

Comprehensive approach

When it comes to industrial relocations and moves, we know how important it is that full capacity is restored as quickly as possible. This requires a partner who can oversee and align all facets of the project to prevent surprises along the way and who can adapt quickly if necessary.

Whether it concerns a straightforward move or a complete international factory relocation for which your machines must be carefully prepared for import or export, we have the capacity, the multi-modal contacts, the experience and the equipment to get it done.
