About us
Since our founding in 1970, ADS van STIGT has grown from a supplier of marine transmissions and gearboxes into a true specialist in drive technology. What began with service and sales for the maritime sector has evolved into a broad portfolio of solutions for a wide range of power transmission challenges.
As both a dealer and competence center for leading European brands, we combine high-quality products into smart, customer-specific systems.
ADS van STIGT is part of the Stokvis Group, a solid family-owned company. Combined with our role as a distributor, this gives us direct access to advanced production, engineering, and development facilities — a strong foundation for innovation, quality, and continuity.
Our Facilities: Efficient, Comprehensive, and Ready for Any Project
At ADS van STIGT, we operate modern workshops equipped with advanced tools, allowing us to work quickly, expertly, and flexibly. Whether it's an overhaul, modification, or new build — our facilities are set up to deliver top quality.
Test Bench
Before any product leaves our workshop, it undergoes extensive testing on our in-house test benches, with a detailed test report provided. This ensures you can rely on consistent performance. If desired, we can also arrange approval by a recognized classification society.
Electronics Workshop
Our specially equipped electronics workshop is ideal for fault diagnostics, control panel assembly, and repairs. With a climate chamber, we can conduct tests under realistic operating temperatures — perfect for testing oil mist detectors (OMDs).
Warehouse
Our warehouse houses a large stock of complete gearboxes and over 6,000 parts. Thanks to our automated Kardex shuttle system and Exact inventory software, everything remains organized and readily available. Frequently used (wear) parts like bearings and seals are kept in stock as standard, minimizing downtime.
