Jan van de Horst from Urschel started as branch manager for this company in 1986. He started with a small office in Doorn, but the cutting specialist, which employs 11 people, is now located in a modern new building in Wijk bij Duurstede.

Previously, that height was 40 cm, and a large catching box could barely fit underneath.
