Specialists in processing food powders

Anno 1912

The factory in which our products are being made is located in Heino. This history of the factory goes years back.

The "Coöperative Steam powered dairy factory Heino" started back in 1912. Soon the factory was already expanding quite a bit.

At first only butter was produced an the skimmed milk was returned to the dairy farmers. Not much later the skimmed milk was turned into milk powder and caseinates at the factory. Other dairy products like milk, cream and buttermilk were also produced at the factory.

A "landmark"

A new chimney was added to the factory in 1960, which can be seen from a far distance. It still stands, but it is out of service since 1991. 

Modernisation

Troughout time the factory has had a lot of developments. Machines and systems were frequently replaced in order to stay on top of the latest techniques. This way the factory could always adjust to changes on the market.

at this moment the factory uses the knowledge and experience that has been built throughout the years. We keep moving and are continiously looking to improve the quality of our products.

A foundation for the future

Our factory has an advanced blending system with a large silo park. Industrial semifinished products can be mixed and packed in bigbags or any other bag. We have a high-care tin- and sachet packaging line for consumer products.

Movie of History of IDH

Collecting milk from the farms and processing the milk in the factory. This video shows you the day that the last milk churns were brought to the factory in Heino, The Netherlands. The farmer collects the milk churns with his tractor and trailer. Each heavy churn is lifted onto the trailer by hand. Once the farmer reaches the factory he lifts the churn from the trailer onto the conveyor belt. Inside the factory a employee pours the milk from the churn. The empty churns are put in the conveyor belt again to reach the farmer outside the factory. He puts the lids back onto the churns. At the end of the video you can see the farmers and the factory staff shake hands and thank each other.
