Company Profile
VAV Aandrijvingen B.V. specializes in conveyor components and solutions for the international bulk handling industry. Founded in 1973, VAV operates as a parts supplier to elevators, chain conveyors and screw conveyors, maintaining an extensive stock that enables short lead times. The company stocks conveyor chains—including drop forged chains, VO-chains and double drag link chains (DIN Chains)—and offers a range of components such as sprockets, elevator belts, elevator buckets, screw segments, beltfasteners and pulleys or cage wheels. VAV emphasizes the ability to customize solutions with special materials or designs, and its technicians provide tailor-made advice to support capacity planning, material type considerations and site-specific conditions, aiming for an optimal price–quality balance. Elevator components form a key part of VAV’s portfolio, with belts available in multiple materials (SBR, NBR, NBR-ACN, FDA and white PVC) and varied bucket designs (ST37, stainless steel and plastic). The company also supplies bucket screws, DIN 15237 components, and related accessories. In addition to essential wear parts, VAV offers comprehensive screw conveyor components, including screw segments (auger blades), endless spirals, shaftless spirals, mix spirals, adjustable hanging bearings and pallets in various materials. The messaging highlights not only the breadth of the product range but also the capability to deliver customized solutions tailored to on-site circumstances and capacity needs. VAV positions itself as a partner for the international bulk handling communities, with a focus on parts supply, extensive inventory, and responsive service. The company notes that it provides short lead times from its extensive inventory and can accommodate special materials or custom designs to meet specific customer requirements. While the public content underscores a long-standing history and a broad catalog of conveyor components, it does not specify additional certifications, geographic reach beyond “international,” or organizational structure beyond its role as a supplier. The emphasis remains on practical, on-demand parts supply and value-added technical consultation to optimize conveyor performance. VAV’s business model centers on reliability, versatility, and rapid availability, reinforcing its position as a go-to source for maintenance, repair, and upgrade of bulk handling systems worldwide.
