History

Turn Nijboer around and what do you get? Exactly: Reobijn! That is what the Nijboer brothers did when they started with some injection molding machines in 1959 and had to give their new company a name.

After more than sixty years, Reobijn is still specialized in the (co-)development, production, assembly, and further logistics of technically high-quality plastic products with a high added value.

Our plastic products find their way to both small companies and large multinationals. A large part of our production is exported to countries within and outside Europe.

The origin of Reobijn

Initially, Reobijn operated a few sprayers under the Hazemeyer banner, which later became Holec and is now called Eaton. After thirty years, the initial location in Hengelo became too small and a move to the current location in Haaksbergen followed in 1989. The group now has about 150 permanent employees with a machine park consisting of more than eighty injection molding machines. You will find Reobijn’s history on the timeline below.
