Following a brief interim period, Jaap Vermunt has been officially named to lead the rapidly developing Werkendam facility. With his background as Supply Chain Manager within the BKB Precision Group, he brings valuable expertise, structure, and a clear vision for growth and collaboration.

At the Kunststoffenbeurs 2025 ANKRO together with BLW Kunststoffen will be present again. For the second year in a row we will take visitors into the world of plastic machining and introduce you to our progressive solutions within this field.

What does sustainability really mean in a world of machinery, plastics and machining? On Environment Day 2024, BKB Precision Group answers that question with its new 2024 Sustainability Report. As part of the BKB Precision Group, together with BKB Precision and BLW Kunststoffen, we show how we turn sustainability into concrete actions and progressive ambitions.

The time has come soon! Together with BLW Kunststoffen, under the flag of the BKB Group, we will be present at the Kunststoffenbeurs 2024. Besides sharing our latest innovations and techniques in the field of plastic machining, we will also unveil our brand new exhibition stand here!

Together with our sister company BKB Precision, we have recently been busy achieving our ISO 9001:2015 certification. This important recognition emphasizes our commitment to quality and continuous improvement. With this certification, we set a new standard and can offer our customers the highest level of service.

Within ANKRO, sustainability plays a crucial role. In our ongoing quest to make the company ever greener, we recently took the step of entering into a partnership with Revink, just like our sister companies BLW Kunststoffen and BKB Precision. A partnership that fits perfectly with our sustainability strategy.

As an organization conscious of its impact on the environment and society, the BKB Group has embedded sustainability into its core values. In all our business activities, we strive for sustainability, which is now proudly presented in our first sustainability report!

In the world of plastic machining, making the right choices in material selection and design optimization is crucial. These choices can influence not only the quality and durability of the end product but also the cost efficiency of the machining process. At ANKRO, we understand the importance of these aspects and strive to utilize our expertise to help our clients achieve optimal results.

Lately, at ANKRO, we've been busy building and setting up a measurement room. The construction is complete, the machines and tools have been ordered, and now it's just a matter of waiting for them to arrive on site. This will enable us to guarantee even greater precision for your new projects. The measurement room is expected to be operational in April.

20 december 2023 December 20, 2023, Son, Netherlands - BKB Group, a renowned name in the plastic machining industry, has finalized the acquisition of BLW Kunststoffen today. This significant development not only strengthens the BKB Group's position in the high-quality plastic machining sector but also underscores the group's ongoing growth and expansion plans in collaboration with 365 Capital.

In the modern manufacturing industry, it's no longer a matter of 'either-or' but rather 'both-and' when it comes to production. Both customization and mass production are essential, especially in sectors like plastic machining. At ANKRO, we see that the key to achieving these opposing goals lies in effectively setting up your machines and production processes, where CNC turning and CNC milling play a significant role.

With satisfaction, we at ANKRO look back on our successful open day held on June 23, 2023. The open day, organized to give friends, family, acquaintances, customers, and other relations a behind-the-scenes look, became a huge success with many positive reactions.
