Deputy Henk Brink, chairman of the jury of the Drenthe Company of the Year, praises the urge to innovate resato† “The company is setting new standards in the field of high-pressure technology internationally. Whether it's waterjet cutters or components for the oil and gas industry, Resato's solutions are impressive.”

Hydrogen
Since its foundation in 1991, Resato has focused on high-pressure technology. The company of Ton Driessen and Rob Castien plays a major role in, among other things, the roll-out of filling stations where you can refuel with hydrogen. “We provide pressure and you need that pressure to store and refuel hydrogen,” says Driessen. According to the company, hydrogen is the future and it is not a hype, as it was a few years ago. 

Jury

Last year was the first edition of the election of the Drenthe Company of the Year. The GrootInstallatiegroep from Emmen was then chosen as the winner during a gala in theater De Nieuwe Kolk in Assen. This year, the jury led by Rieks Siertsma had to choose from no fewer than 118 companies. Three nominees were chosen from a selection of 10 companies. Our partner Resato eventually got the coveted title.
