We have made a significant modernisation effort at our production sites in the Netherlands and Germany. By adding new multifunctional machines and robots, we are achieving a tremendous increase in efficiency. This allows us to meet the significantly increased demand even better, maintain product quality, and shorten lead times. The modernisation seamlessly aligns with our proactive growth strategy. Over the coming years, we will focus on further growth in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and North and South America.

Growing markets

The world population is continually growing. By 2050, it is projected to reach as high as 9.7 billion; by 2100, it could soar to 11.2 billion. This population growth will increase demand for food and products such as infant formula, coffee, and pet food. Consequently, there will be growing pressure to produce more in shorter timeframes in the coming years.

It is, therefore, crucial that we future-proof the dry bulk industry. At DMN-WESTINGHOUSE, we have innovated our production process by investing in new, modern technologies. For example, we have replaced single-use machines with multifunctional machines, and installed various robots. These innovations enable us to meet the growing demand and to comply with increasingly stringent requirements regarding quality, safety, hygiene, reliability, and user-friendliness.

Future plans

Paul Silva da Cruz, CFO at DMN-WESTINGHOUSE, says: “At DMN-WESTINGHOUSE, we have the capacity and expertise to tackle large projects. We are focusing on markets poised for growth, including dairy, food, and animal food, which have significantly increased since the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, we are targeting emerging markets such as Lithium Ion batteries and growth markets in Asia, India, North and South America, and Europe. With our modernization of production facilities and years of experience, we can contribute to the global growth we anticipate in the coming years.”
