Recently, PENDLR and Bott took care of the refurbishment of Bike Totaal Ton Koning's workshop. We spoke to Jan Bond, the owner, to hear how he, the staff and his customers like the new set-up.
A neater and more efficient workshop
According to Jan Bond, the biggest change was that the workshop is now much neater and more organised. Previously, the workshop was an open space without walls, which meant everyone could see all the bikes and materials mixed up. Now there is a clear separation, so customers only see the part where work is actually done on bikes. This creates more peace and space, and it leaves a much more professional impression on customers.
Smooth cooperation with PENDLR
‘We have been working with Kruitbosch for 30 years, so it was natural that we would approach them for this redesign,’ says Jan. ‘The cooperation went very smoothly. We already had some ideas of our own and together with Roeland from PENDLR we were able to develop them into a practical and efficient layout.’
Improved functionality and efficiency
One of the main improvements was the introduction of new, organised cabinets. ‘The old cabinets were over 25 years old and not very practical. Now we have cabinets with layouts in the drawers, which contributes to neatness and clarity,’ says Jan.
In addition, the redesign has led to a more efficient working environment. ‘We now work closer together, which at first took getting used to, but now it ensures that we can help each other more easily and quickly. There is less walking through the workshop and everyone can work from their own workstations. This all contributes to efficiency.’
Positive customer reactions
Customers respond positively to the new workshop. ‘Many customers even startle a little when they enter the workshop and say, ‘Did I accidentally walk into the shop?’’ laughs Jan. ‘The reactions are very positive, people notice that it is more spacious and tidy. The space hasn't changed, but the new layout makes it seem more spacious.’
A partnership of trust and innovation
The workshop layout at Ton Koning was already the 25th workshop that PENDLR and Bott have realised together. Since the first collaboration, the partnership between PENDLR and Bott has grown into a symbol of reliability and technical progress. Both companies share a vision of making workshops more efficient, safer and more enjoyable. Bott's high-quality products and PENDLR's expert advice have led to countless successful projects, with each workshop fitting out exceeding expectations every time.
