Vlukon is the Dutch market leader in the design, manufacture and distribution of wheel-related hardware for agriculture and industrial use. Our history dates back to 1946; since 1969 we have operated under the Vlukon name, a combination of the founders’ surnames Vluggen and Van Konijnenburg.
Our manufacturing facility in Vaals sits at the intersection of the German, Dutch and Belgian borders, which lets us serve OEMs across Western Europe with short lead times. Premier raw materials, a semi-automated and flexible production line, and an engineering team that co-designs with customers are what make a Vlukon rim.
