The innovations of neighbor Arie

Pieter Boekestijn was born in 1969 in De Lier, a village in the Westland region. His neighbor was Arie van den Berg, a grower who clearly stood out from the rest. As a young boy, Pieter was always curious about what new things Arie was experimenting with. He loved visiting him to take a look. He still remembers how impressive the first model of the electronic pipe rail trolley was. What an innovation that was!

Watch the full story of Pieter and his experiences with Arie's innovations in the video.

An excellent pipe rail trolley

Pieter grew up with the Berg Hortimotive brand. Today, he runs the family business Westlandpeppers with his two brothers. Pieter is very impressed with the BeNomic Star pipe rail trolley. They are user-friendly and robust. No unnecessary bells and whistles, because they simply aren't needed. At Westlandpeppers, employees from various nationalities work in the greenhouses. Not everyone has knowledge of or an affinity for electronic machines. That's why it's important that the equipment is simple and reliable. And that's exactly what the pipe rail trolleys from Berg Hortimotive offer.

"I can still clearly remember the first type of electronic pipe rail trolley. What an invention!"

Service is essential

Westlandpeppers has also tried other brands of pipe rail trolleys in the past. Those experiences were not exactly positive. The service didn’t meet expectations, and the quality left much to be desired. When it comes to investment goods like pipe rail trolleys, it’s important to think about the long-term and the accompanying service. "Service is a crucial aspect for us. We’ve been customers of Berg Hortimotive for many years. And it’s not just because they are located nearby, but because we always get fast and reliable support," Pieter says, satisfied.

Spare parts always available

At Westlandpeppers, there are still Berg pipe rail trolleys from 1980 in operation. And they still work. Of course, over the years, some parts have been replaced. But the fact that these trolleys are still in use speaks volumes. Pieter is also very satisfied with the availability of spare parts. Even for the older models, he can still find the necessary parts. Now that's what he calls service!
