A look back at our history

1977

Founding and early development

Since its founding in 1977, Microtron has grown into a leading player in the distribution of semiconductors and electromechanical components. What started as a specialized supplier quickly became a trusted name in the industry. Even in those early years, a strong team spirit emerged, nicely illustrated by the first staff outing to Sluis, including an overnight stay.

The 1980s

Growth and technological expansion

In the 1980s, Microtron expanded its product portfolio with cable assembly, further strengthening its expertise and services. This expansion marked the beginning of a broader focus on custom solutions and specialized technologies.

One of the standout highlights from this period was the twin-engine aircraft in Microtron branding. The team proudly stood next to it with the co-pilot, and from time to time customers were taken for a short flight—a perfect illustration of Microtron’s innovative, customer-focused spirit.

1986

New space, new possibilities

Continued growth made a larger, dedicated location necessary. In 1986, Microtron moved to its own office in Mechelen, which not only provided room for further expansion but also strengthened the organization’s professionalization.

1990

Pushing boundaries and strengthening networks

Expansion continued with the founding of Microtron Benelux in 1990. This led to the opening of three branches: Mechelen (Belgium), Oosterhout (Netherlands), and Luxembourg.

In addition, the product range was broadened with networking technologies, making Microtron a key player in the growing IT sector. This meant further specialization in industrial IT solutions and the ability to support customers even better with integrated technologies.

1997

New: test and measurement equipment

In 1997, the offering was further expanded with test and measurement equipment. This enabled customers to analyze and optimize electronic components and systems even more effectively. With this, Microtron strengthened its role as a reliable supplier of high-quality technical solutions.

2000

New: Industrial electronics and industrial computers

In 2000, Microtron took an important step forward by expanding into industrial electronics and industrial computers. This made the company a reliable partner for innovative, robust, industry-tailored solutions.

2003

Opening of service & repair center in Mechelen + launch of R&D lab

In 2003, Microtron opened a specialized Service & Repair Center in Mechelen, where customers can count on rapid support and expertise. At the same time, an in-house R&D lab was established, accelerating innovation and product development at Microtron.

During that period, the team also designed a striking trade show booth inspired by the Space Shuttle, which was a true hype at the time. The design mainly reflected Microtron’s enthusiasm and creativity—separate from the products or the trade show itself—and immediately made a statement of ambition and innovation.

2017

40 years of Microtron, a milestone in reliability

In 2017, Microtron celebrated its 40th anniversary, an impressive milestone that underscores the company’s years of growth, expertise, and customer focus.

Pssst… can you guess what’s shown in the photo?

2023-2024

A new milestone in leadership

Since December 1, 2023, founder Fernand Schrijvers, together with Hewad Mohmand and Pieter Nickmans, has formed Microtron’s new management team.

As equal partners, each with their own expertise, they are leading Microtron toward a promising future.

2025

Introducing a new brand identity

The future brings further change, and in 2025 Microtron will introduce a new brand identity. This reflects the company’s evolution and its ambition to respond even more effectively to the changing technology market. With a modern look and a clear mission, Microtron continues to position itself as a reliable and forward-thinking partner in industrial technology.
