Mr. Ernest Haffmans founded the company in 1947 as an agent for the European brewing industry, focussing mainly on the supply of raw materials. When in the early 1960's Ernest Haffmans decided to develop and assemble Quality Control Equipment, the famous CO2 Gehaltemeter was born. In the 1970's the activities were extended and Haffmans started to deliver CO2-Recovery technology. In 1980 Bert Haffmans succeeded his father and the focus of the company shifted from trading into development, manufacturing and service, focusing on the areas of Quality Control Equipment, Units for Carbonation, Blending, De-aeration and CO2-Recovery.
