Modiform and Van Tuijl Haaften have agreed on the acquisition of a substantial part of Thomsen’s production assets. The move is intended to secure the continued supply of Thomsen injection-moulded pots as Modiform phases out Thomsen’s activities.

The supply of Thomsen injection-moulded pots is set to continue under Van Tuijl Haaften BV. Modiform BV and Van Tuijl Haaften BV have agreed on the acquisition of a substantial part of Thomsen’s production assets, following Modiform’s earlier decision to gradually phase out Thomsen’s business activities.

Van Tuijl Haaften BV has more than 25 years of experience in the injection moulding of flower pots, flower buckets and soft fruit pots. The company currently operates around 30 injection moulding machines.

Thomsen’s production activities in France will be discontinued in the first half of July 2026. Until then, Thomsen will focus on producing already confirmed volumes, which will be delivered by Modiform in the coming months.

“With this agreement, we are taking an important step to continue providing certainty to our customers,” says Wilma Bloot, CEO of Modiform. “Van Tuijl Haaften BV is an experienced partner in injection moulding production, and we have full confidence that they will successfully continue the production.”

Ongoing Thomsen orders will be delivered by Modiform according to plan. Modiform says it is committed to ensuring a smooth transition. Van Tuijl Haaften BV will work to make production in Haaften operational as soon as possible. The phasing out of Thomsen has no impact on Modiform’s other activities.
