Whether it's welding, painting, assembly or electrical assembly, each step in our process is dominated by craftsmanship and the well-known quality.
With short lines of communication and a down-to-earth Rotterdam approach, we not only provide efficient vehicles, but also customized solutions. Our advisors travel throughout the country to help customers optimize their logistics processes. Meanwhile, our service department is on standby for maintenance and quick assistance, so that your Spijkstaal always keeps running.
Spijkstaal is more than a manufacturer, we are your partner in electric mobility. Innovative, reliable and ready for the future.
Spijkstaal has been a familiar face in the Netherlands for more than 85 years and has gained iconic status thanks to its famous SRV wagon. Generations of Dutch people remember the mobile stores, full of products and services, which had a permanent place in the street scene.
Since the 1980s, we have become a leading brand in electric tractors, which are used in industry, warehousing, healthcare, ports and automotive. With our solutions, we make logistics processes not only more efficient, but also more enjoyable.

Discover our journey
It all began when Gerrit Neuteboom decided to build steel farm wagons in Spijkenisse, which inspired the name "Spijkstaal.
Our electric trucks found their way into the delivery retail industry, where we sold as many as 1,200 of these vehicles in a peak year. In industry, too, our Spijkstaal vehicles became a popular choice for material handling.
We brought an important innovation to our electric cars: the introduction of the "car steering wheel" front leg with drive.
Here began the production of the iconic SRV cars, manufactured entirely in-house, including bodywork.
Our customization of fire trucks began in Hoogeveen, where no two fire trucks were alike.
We revamped our platform trucks and tractors, paying particular attention to design and technological improvements, mainly focused on tractors in flower auctions.
On behalf of the Ministry of Transport and Public Works, we initiated field trials with 12 electric Volkswagen Caravelles.
Several partnerships resulted in new technical projects, such as building electric garbage compactors for Van Gansewinkel and self-driving park shuttle vans for the municipality of Capelle a/d IJssel.
Spijkstaal International B.V. became part of the Peinemann Mobilift Group and broadened its focus to the rental of electric vehicles.
Our collaboration with AGVR resulted in the Spijkstaal AGV (Automatic Guided Vehicle) tractor, a converted version of our electric tractor.
This advanced tractor is ideally suited for use in locations such as hospitals, airports and train stations, where it is essential to efficiently move trash containers, carts and/or trailers weighing up to 2,000 kg.
