History of ERIKS
More than 79 years of industrial excellence

Products and services for the industry
ERIKS founder Arie Eriks started his small business in 1940 supplying gaskets, seals, V-belts and hoses to the dairy industry. Until the seventies the business in gaskets and rubber gradually expanded.
Branch operations were founded close to industrial centers in the Netherlands (Rotterdam, Enschede, Eindhoven, Roermond) and in Belgium and France. In 1977 ERIKS was listed on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange.

The history of ERIKS encompasses more than ERIKS’ own stories. Through many acquisitions, ERIKS was enriched with the histories and experience of other companies such as Econosto and Vemoflex. From 1979 until 2000 ERIKS, expanded into other European countries, Asia and the USA and added electrical power transmission, valves, hoses and couplings and industrial plastics to the range of products.
From 2000 until 2015, ERIKS acquired several specialized distribution and manufacturing companies in Europe, including large organizations such as Baudoin in Belgium and Wyko in the United Kingdom. With the acquisition of Lewis-Goetz, Rawson and Industrial Controls, ERIKS strengthened its market position in the US.
