Who are we?

In 1995, Hielke Dijkstra gave up a teaching career in automotive engineering to start his own company. Hielke wanted more technology, R&D, innovation, development and especially collaboration. TRiOS was born. The company started out with an attic as office space, a garage as a workshop and a client who had faith. Since then, TRiOS has become a major player in the world of precision engineering. The jury report for the DISC Award 2016 for Best Knowledge Supplier praises TRiOS for its “innovations that are unique in the world and its excellent relationships with clients.”

The human factor

TRiOS has developed its own methodology to resolve clients’ issues. This methodology is characterised by close collaboration with clients and a high degree of confidentiality. It results in long-term partnerships for strategic R&D projects.

Vision and mission

In the markets that our clients operate in, TRiOS sees the demand for small and smaller in product development become bigger and bigger. The products and machines must be able to do more and be produced with ever-increasing degrees of accuracy that far exceed the possibilities of manual production.

TRiOS strives to resolve the strategic R&D issues of innovative businesses with passion and drive. TRiOS helps these businesses excel in their market by developing new products on the cutting edge of existing technologies and applied knowledge.

Team & contacts

Our team consists of a diverse and carefully formed group of engineers and constructors who have mastered both theory and practice. It offers a perfect combination of experienced employees with a long track record and young talent. TRiOS invests heavily in training and education for its staff. Employees are trained in multidisciplinary and structured collaboration, the utilisation of applied knowledge and creativity. Our vision on work method and development brings out the best in people and is guaranteed to result in knowledge advice and products that work.
