Engineered for you
We design and manufacture weighing, packaging, and palletizing machines for the agri-food sector. All our machines are developed and assembled in the Netherlands, resulting in a high-quality, fully integrated line that performs efficiently and reliably. Thanks to their robust construction and the use of premium materials and components, our machines deliver high uptime, exceptional accuracy, and outstanding performance, setting the benchmark in the industry.
Built to last
Both the software and the associated components are entirely designed and built in-house. This allows us to provide customer-specific solutions without unnecessary costs or complexity. Thanks to our innovative designs and continuous focus on safety and reliability, our machines meet the highest standards. To minimize downtime, we offer maintenance on wear parts and have a worldwide dealer network for service and support, ensuring our machines remain in optimal condition at all times.
Timeline
History
Herman Wehkamp and Peter Lenferink decided to set up Manter International in 1995. They rented an office with a lodge for the production of the machines and got started right away with a small but highly motivated team. The photo was taken in late 1995.
New location
After a successful start, a new building could be built on the industrial estate in Emmen after 4 years. This building had a 1375 m2 production hall and offered enough office space for our growing business.
Hall 2
Continued growth forced Manter to expand. Therefore, Hall 2 was built, this new hall was a doubling of the production space.
Hall 3
In addition to the need for a larger production hall we also needed more office space. Therefore, Hall 3 was built along with the necessary office space and Manter was equipped with a brand new canteen.
Hall 4
Due to the growing need for production space, Hall 4 was built. This hall is mainly set up as an additional warehouse and for storage of machinery that is ready for transport. This allows the production halls to be used optimally for production.
The first ‘Manter Dealer Days’
Two Dealer Days followed by a Business Relation Day and finally a Family & Friends Day. This event focused on personal connection with our associates. They were very valuable and successful days.
Company of the Year in Drenthe
Of the 150 nominated companies from Drenthe, we were appointed ‘Company of the Year’ after a presentation round, an in-depth interview and a company visit. A great achievement that we are very proud of!
Jubilee 30 years Manter
We started the day with an inspiring tour at Solidtec, followed by an exciting botter sailing competition in Harderwijk and we ended with a cozy BBQ on an island in the Wolderwijd.
Mission
Our mission is to provide high-quality weighing, packaging and palletizing solutions with a low total cost of ownership for the agricultural and food industry worldwide. We create sustainable customer-oriented solutions and provide service that enables optimal productivity.
Vision
Our vision is to create machines that automate the packaging process of fresh food, enhancing efficiency and ensuring the highest standards of hygiene, quality and safety.
Our overarching goal is to contribute globally to food preservation by providing sustainable packaging that prevents waste and makes healthy food as accessible as possible for everyone. We replace heavy, repetitive labor with advanced machines, allowing people to perform safer and more enjoyable work. In addition, the efficient design of these facilities helps keep the cost of healthy food affordable.
