Five Noordhofprijs winners immortalised on the Wall of Fame
At KMWE, everything revolves around precision and innovation, but what we’re truly proud of? That’s our people. With no less than five Noordhofprijs winners in our team, we’ve achieved something unique in the Brainport region. That’s why we’ve immortalised their exceptional craftsmanship on a special Wall of Fame.
Five skilled professionals honoured on the Wall of Fame
The Noordhofprijs is the most prestigious award for craftsmanship and innovation in the Brainport region. KMWE has the special privilege of employing five of these winners, and that is unique. Only a few companies can match this. On top of that, these top talents are still part of our team.
Our proud winners:
- Henny Leenders – CNC Machine Operator, Programmer (1994)
- Patrick Vereijken – Teamleader Milling (2008)
- Jan Bruurs – Technical Specialist Tooling (2013)
- Huub van de Water – CAM Engineer Milling (2022)
- Edwin van Hak – Trainee Assembly (2024 – Zij-instroom Vaktalent)
Their craftsmanship, passion, and dedication are the driving force behind KMWE and a source of inspiration for all our colleagues.
The unveiling of the Wall of Fame
On February 4, 2025, we proudly unveiled the Wall of Fame. Here, our winners are given a permanent place in the spotlight with unique 3D-printed figurines that capture their character and appearance in remarkable detail. This special tribute not only celebrates their achievements but also highlights the importance of craftsmanship within KMWE.
Craftsmanship as the foundation of KMWE
While the Wall of Fame honours our award winners, we are equally proud of all our colleagues. Every employee contributes to KMWE’s success. Their commitment, passion, and craftsmanship strengthen the organisation.
Through this tribute, we show that craftsmanship is not just something we value, but something we cherish and aim to pass on to future generations.
