Dubbeldam has acquired Lamboo Repair & Carrosserie for an undisclosed amount, marking a significant development in the commercial vehicle service and manufacturing sector. Lamboo Repair & Carrosserie, founded in 1957 by Joost Lamboo, has established a strong reputation in the Netherlands for its expertise in custom coachbuilding and comprehensive vehicle repair services, built on a foundation of quality and craftsmanship.
Lamboo Repair operates one of the largest and most modern repair workshops in the Netherlands, offering a "one-stop-shopping" solution for commercial vehicle maintenance. Its extensive service portfolio includes hydraulics, loading cranes, chassis work, construction, polyester repairs, cooling machine services, a dedicated damage department, and a new paint shop, ensuring vehicles are quickly returned to service. Concurrently, Lamboo Carrosserie specializes in new build products, ranging from mega-trailers for international transport to 3.5-meter boxes for urban logistics, providing both standard series production and bespoke solutions tailored to client specifications, utilizing high-quality materials and brands.
This acquisition is strategically aimed at enhancing Dubbeldam's capabilities and strengthening its position within the commercial vehicle industry. By integrating Lamboo's broad range of repair and new build services, Dubbeldam gains access to specialized expertise, an established customer base, and a significant operational footprint in the Dutch market. The move is expected to create synergies by expanding the combined entity's service offerings and operational efficiencies.
The integration of Lamboo Repair & Carrosserie into Dubbeldam is anticipated to result in a more comprehensive and robust service provider for commercial vehicle operators. The combined entity is poised to leverage Lamboo's legacy of quality and innovation to deliver an expanded suite of solutions, reinforcing its commitment to meeting the evolving needs of the transport and logistics sector in the Netherlands and beyond.
