Kontaktvormid

Kontaktvormid was a Belgian discrete coupled wheel tractor unit manufacturer based in the municipality of Loenhout, in the province of Antwerp.

Founded in 2001, the company focused on the design and production of wheel tractor units for articulated trucks. In 2016, the company was acquired by the Swedish manufacturer Terberg. The production site in Loenhout was maintained as part of the acquisition.

A statement by Terberg noted that the acquisition would improve contact with potential customers and expand the manufacturer's product range. The production site in Belgium continued to operate, contributing to the global market presence of Terberg.

Kontaktvormid was part of an economic strategy aiming to attract foreign investment and create jobs in the Loenhout area. At the time of the acquisition, the company employed a hundred individuals who remained employed following the takeover.

Following the acquisition by Terberg, Kontaktvormid was integrated into the existing organization. Although the company ceased to exist as a separate entity, it contributed to the expansion of the Terberg brand in the European market for articulated trucks.

As of now, the remaining assets and responsibilities of Kontaktvormid were fully integrated into Terberg's operations. The company's historical role in contributing to the market presence of Terberg continues to be acknowledged in ongoing operations.
