Boon Edam Celebrates 40-year Partnership as Rijser Transport Marks 100 Years
At Boon Edam, our work connects people and buildings around the world. Delivering our entrance solutions across different countries and markets takes expertise, coordination and trusted relationships.
Some of those relationships have been built over decades.
One of them is our partnership with Rijser Transport, which celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2026. Founded in 1926, the third-generation family-owned logistics company has worked with Boon Edam for around 40 years, supporting the storage, preparation and international transportation of our entrance solutions.
Together, we help ensure our products reach customer projects safely and efficiently, supported by the experience and close cooperation that come from working together over many years.
Shared heritage, shared values
Founded in 1926 by Cor Rijser, the grandfather of current owner Ron Rijser, Rijser Transport has grown into a third-generation family business. It's a history we recognise at Boon Edam. While our roots go back to 1873, we are also a third-generation family-owned company today.
This shared background brings a natural understanding of what it means to build a business for the long term. We value personal relationships, take pride in our work and believe that trust is earned through years of working together.
Over the past four decades, these values have helped shape a partnership built on mutual understanding, shared responsibility and a commitment to doing things well.
Working together to deliver for our customers
Every entrance solution we create is part of a wider project, with people, planning and deadlines that need to come together.
For our customers, dependable delivery matters. It helps projects progress as planned, supports coordination on site and gives our teams greater confidence in meeting their commitments.
Rijser Transport plays an important role in making that possible.
From storing and preparing our products to managing European transport and coordinating shipments beyond Europe, their team helps us connect our manufacturing operations with projects around the world.
And after 40 years of working together, they know our business.
The dedicated Rijser Boon Edam team work closely with our Expedition colleagues. Their understanding of our products, processes and requirements helps us anticipate challenges, respond to changing circumstances and find practical solutions together.
That experience and familiarity make a real difference. They help us work more effectively and provide the dependable service our customers expect.
The value of relationships that last
We believe strong partnerships are an important part of delivering quality and reliability.
Our relationship with Rijser shows what that means in practice. It's not simply about moving products from one location to another. It's about people who understand each other's businesses, take responsibility and work together to get things right.
For our customers, much of this work happens behind the scenes. But it plays an important role in what we deliver: reliable entrance solutions, supported by people and partnerships they can trust, helping buildings perform and people move with confidence.
Celebrating 100 years
To mark this special milestone, Niels Huber, third-generation owner and Chairman of Boon Edam, recently visited Ron Rijser and his team to personally congratulate them and thank them for their dedication over the years.
On behalf of everyone at Boon Edam, congratulations to the entire Rijser Transport team on 100 years in business. We're proud of what we've achieved together and look forward to continuing our partnership, supporting customers around the world for many years to come.
