Nihot Recycling Technology B.V. has been acquired by Bulk Handling Systems

January 2013 — The shareholders of Nihot Recycling Technology B.V. (Nihot) have successfully sold 100% of their shares to Bulk Handling Systems (BHS).

Nihot is a global leader in the design and manufacture of air separation technologies.

With over 500 operational references worldwide, Nihot has a reputation of reliability, efficiency as well as experience and competence.

BHS, based in Eugene, Oregon, USA, is a worldwide leader in the innovative design, engineering, manufacturing and installation of sorting systems and components for the solid waste, recycling, waste-to-energy, and construction and demolition industries. With the acquisition of Nihot, BHS will strengthen the integrated solutions that it offers its customers.

“BHS and Nihot are similar in that both companies manufacture equipment to the highest levels of quality,” said Cees Duijn, Director of Nihot. “Combining our technology, product offerings, global resources and expertise will enhance every function of our business. BHS has positioned itself as the premier systems provider. We are excited to be joining this team and are looking forward to a prosperous partnership.”
