History

Royal GMF-Gouda enjoys a rich entrepreneurial history tracing back to February 1909, when Mr. Hupkes started a small Machinefactory, producing equipment for cleaning milk cans. Soon after his start, Mr. Hupkes expanded his business and started manufacturing double drum dryers for milk drying around 1916. Soon after which single drum dryers were developed for high viscous products. As time passed, the drum flaker was developed, later followed by peeling equipment, the disc pastillator and the paddle dryer.

Today, Royal GMF-Gouda is still a family-owned company with employees spread around the world in seven offices. While Royal GMF-Gouda’s business and equipment will continue to evolve and adjust to a more demanding environment, our 100-year-young goal will remain unchanged:
