Strategic collaboration with Dutch industry leaders accelerates innovation, automation, and market expansion across Europe.

Jinan, China – April 14, 2026– Bodor Laser, the world's leading provider of fiber laser cutting solutions, welcomed representatives from the Netherlands Metalworking Association (NEVAT) to its Dream Park Global Headquarters in Jinan for the Bodor Laser–Netherlands Laser Industry Exchange Conference, a major event dedicated to the future of global laser manufacturing and industrial cooperation. The event brought together distinguished leaders from Bodor’s long-term partner Klaassen, alongside key representatives from CCPIT Jinan, Sinotruk, Swan Cotton Machinery, and Dutch manufacturing enterprises.

Deepening the Dutch Connection: A Strategic Priority

The conference highlighted the deep-rooted partnership between Bodor Laser and the Dutch metalworking sector. NEVAT, representing over 170 premium manufacturing enterprises, brings over 40 years of influence and serves as a critical backbone of the European supply chain. Meanwhile, Klaassen, with its 72-year legacy in metalworking, stands as a benchmark for technical expertise and distribution in Europe. 

Jay Kong, President of Bodor Laser, emphasized this decade-long alliance: "Together with Klaassen, we have built the Netherlands' most comprehensive laser showroom and delivered solutions explicitly tailored to local needs. We will continue driving joint innovation to build a thriving industry ecosystem."

To meet local automation needs, Bodor has introduced customized models like the W-Series and M5-Series for Dutch enterprises. Furthermore, Bodor, NEVAT, and Klaassen agreed on a three-pillar collaboration strategy: co-creating a Sino-Dutch R&D platform for smart manufacturing, leveraging local networks to accelerate European market expansion, and fostering a robust exchange of technology and talent to build a thriving industry ecosystem.

Echoing this synergy, Gao Xiaoyang, Vice Chairman of CCPIT Jinan, proposed establishing a Sino-Dutch innovation platform to co-develop high-power applications and intelligent automation, fostering a robust exchange of technology and talent.

Empowering the European Metalworking Industry

"Bodor's equipment seamlessly combines cutting-edge design with technological prowess. We will leverage our local market expertise to deeply integrate with Bodor and jointly expand our international footprint," said Jürgen Kroeze, General Manager of Klaassen, following a comprehensive tour of Bodor's core technologies. Kroeze noted that automation is a long-term priority for Dutch metalworking enterprises seeking to boost production efficiency, and Bodor's proven solutions thoroughly met their rigorous standards.

Today, Bodor Laser has established a robust footprint in the Dutch market, where its high-performance laser cutting machines and automation technologies are widely utilized by local manufacturers to drive precision and operational excellence. To witness these cutting-edge applications in large-scale industrial settings, NEVAT and Klaassen led representatives from various Dutch manufacturing enterprises on exclusive site visits to Bodor’s benchmark clients in China, including heavy-duty truck giant SINOTRUK and Swan Cotton Machinery.
