High-quality turning and milling

We specialise in high-quality turning and milling operations for runs of all sizes. For medium, recurring runs, we use our automated FMS lines. For large runs, we have a fully unmanned AMP factory that produces 24/7. We continuously invest in new techniques and craftsmanship, always with a focus on long-term collaboration.

Agile and committed

Van Bilsen Group is a flat organisation with around 90 employees across two sites. Short lines of communication and direct contact make us agile and closely involved with our customers. At the same time, we invest in good employer practices: from a safe working environment to training and development opportunities for our skilled professionals.

Quality control and sustainability

You can count on demonstrable quality: our processes are certified according to ISO 9001 and IATF 16949, the international automotive standard. We are also ISO 14001 certified, ensuring that our production meets high standards in terms of the environment and sustainability.
