Out of the past into the future
Since January 2008 Lankhorst│Yarns is the new trade name for a very old traditional subsidiary of the Royal Lankhorst/ Euronete Group. January 2007 Lankhorst moved production, administration and customer service to their own factory in Portugal, Lankhorst/Indutech-cerfil s.a. and in our modern equipped factories we also produce our superior quality range PP twines for the horticulture market:
Horticultural Market
Probably you ever heard of it: - the Town of Glass - the greenhouses in the Westland, an area close to The Hague and the North sea in the Netherlands. Nowadays greenhouses are not only built in that specific part of Holland but all over the world, from Canada to New Zealand. In these greenhouses tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, aubergines and courgettes are cultivated. All these growers needs twine to support their plants during the crop.

The new generation greenhouses is a modern high tech industry where professional growers constantly look for new developments. For the tomatoes most of the twine is winded on hooks or small bobbins to reduce labour, make harvest more profitable and work quicker and more efficient. Twine is an essential product in this process and we as Lankhorst Indutech Cerfil s.a., with our long experience for decades, wants to bring in all our knowledge. We are very close involved in new developments from winding several types of twine on hooks and roller hooks till maybe the next generation of compostable twine.
International Exhibition
The growers and the supplier frequently meet at an exhibition like the yearly Hortifair in Amsterdam with approx. 60.000 visitors from over the whole world. During this exhibition many foreign contacts are being made. Next to that we get a clear view on the demands of the growers regarding the twines to use. For example, a twine which is strong enough to support the crop more than 1 year or demand for bio-degradable/compostable products.
