    Today we visit the Kroon-Oil production site in Zwijndrecht, where we have a tour and where the various prduction processes are explained. Upon our arrival at our destination, we are impressed by what we see; anenormous area with warehouses and oil tanks, centrally located in the shadow o Rotterdam. We are welcomedby Bart Vreriks, Operations Manager.

    D rin o r interview with Bart, the phone re larly rin s,and in addition, occasionally someone walks in with aq estion. Barts o ce overlooks part o the prod ction hallin Zwijndrecht. Kroon-Oil prod ction is divided over twolocations. In Almelo, the majority o the daily order fowis processed while in Zwijndrecht mainly the b lk- and ex-port orders are prod ced. The ports o Rotterdam and Ant-werp and th s the rest o the world are nearby. Beca sethe prod ction takes place in two locations, the res lt is ahi h de ree o transparency and fexibility which impro-ves the reliability o delivery.

    nEW inVEStMEntS

    Bart is a cheery local b t he is serio s when talkin abo tthe prod ction. I o ten speak with collea es rom thesame sector o ind stry and they tell me with a jealo stone that I can call mysel a l cky y to work at Kroon-Oil. The company contin es to row despite the crisis.Those people do not realize that j st beca se o that,

    yo can never lean back. D rin meetin s, the prod ctdevelopment department and sales department re larlypresent new prod cts with the latest speci cations. As aconseq ence it is a constant challen e or prod ction toadapt tank plannin accordin ly. In addition, there is a

    tremendo s rowth in vol me. Fort nately there is plentyo room or investment. In recent years, many new tankswere installed, both or b lk llin lines as or new pro-d cts. Several months a o an a tomatic llin system orlar e packs was p t into se, which q ickly lls dr ms andIBC's. Besides that, we also placed a new, lly a tomaticllin installation or the lar er series o 20 liter pails.

    aDVanCED FillinG linE

    Bart pro dly shows his new baby; an advanced llinline or small packa in which is placed next to theother 5 llin lines. On this line mostly 1 and 5 literbottles are lled at hi h speed. People are still workinon adj stin the new machine, b t already a do blepackin shi t can hardly keep p the pace o thisnew machine! One o the ollowin investments mostcertainly is a nit which a tomatically places the bottlesin boxes and then a tomatically places these boxes onpallets. With the enormo s assortment Kroon-Oil has,fexibility is a prereq isite. That does not mean thatworkin consistently and e ectively are lost o t o si ht.All processes are carried o t accordin to proced resas stip lated in the ISO 9001(2008)-man al and careor the environment is aranteed by the ISO 14001

    we have made a switch to the Ford Fiesta S per 2000 andthe Kroon-Oil prod cts we se or the car, et exposed toextreme conditions. We take samples rom the motor-oil,transmission-oil and oil rom the di s on a re lar base.These samples are bein inspected by Kroon-Oil so Kroon-Oil can improve their prod cts.

    In 2008 Hermen made his deb t in the D tch rally sport.A ter startin ca tio sly in a Mits bishi Colt, he switched toa more power l Rena lt Clio in 2010. With this car he im-mediately became D tch champion in the ront-wheel drivecars class. Last season the yo n ster participated in the Bel-ian championship, this year he participates at the D tchOpen Rally Championship with the power l Ford FiestaS per 2000. This year we want to join the top o the D tch

    rally sport, gerrit Kob s states when revealin the planshe has made or and to ether with Hermen. To be able toachieve these plans we also ive a lot back to Kroon-Oil.They are a very important link in o r team.

    Since the beginning o this year, Kroon-Oil started sponsoring a new rally sport team. A ter Piepers Rallyspostopped existing mid-2011, Kroon-Oil came in contact with Kobus Tuning rom Lichtenvoorde, trough navigaErik de Wild. Kroon-Oil and Kobus Tuning, who is competing in the Open Dutch Rally Tournament with a F

Here Kob s and The Wild showed that theycan already meas re themselves with the top o the lea edespite achievin o rth place. A ter rther considerationit became clear that Kob s and de Wild had a fat tire,di c lties with the handbrake and were held back. Besi-

    It was the rst time that I started in S lin en. So everythinwas new to me while in the meantime I switched to the FordFiesta S per 2000. The most r stratin part o this rallywas the fat tire.
