STV is a family company with eight enthusiastic staff members. The company is regionally known for its direct delivery, fast service and the user-friendly webshop, supplying the whole of the Netherlands with equipment and accessories in the field of welding, cutting and grinding.

Before STV decides to add products to its assortment, they are tested extensively in the demo room, the ‘Experience Centre’, designed specifically for this purpose. The personnel frequently spends hours welding or grinding. Customers may also use this ‘Experience Centre’ to test their future investment personally.

High-quality protection equipment against inhaling welding fumes is hereby obvious. Besides that, no welding fumes may enter from the demo room into the adjoining store.
