About Key

Key Technology is the manufacturer of optical inspection, transport and sorting machines for the food industry. We sometimes say; If Key can’t make it, no one can! Our goal is to be the ultimate partner in the food processing industry.

About Key

We serve customers across the EMEA/ASIA market (Europe/Middle East/Africa and Asia). Key Technology BV is based in Beusichem (NL) and Key Technology NV in Hasselt (BE) and has a sister company in Walla Walla (USA), all part of the Duravant Group. A large part of our customers are in the potato processing industry.

Once you join Key Technology, you will never look at a potato chip the same way again. Every day, 1 billion people worldwide encounter fries or chips that have passed over a Key Technology machine.

Beusichem Office

Beusichem falls under the municipality of Buren which is in the province of Gelderland but also borders the province of Utrecht. This site has belonged to Key Technology since 1996. About 150 employees work at this location. Besides the offices, there are two production facilities where the shakers and optical sorting machines are manufactured. This gives a nice mix of employees and here, as an engineer, you can easily see your designs come to life. As a production employee, you can easily walk to the drawing room to discuss with the engineers.

In Hasselt, there is a customer experience center where customers can see our machines at work and receive necessary training. There is also an R&D lab to test out new developments and applications. This gives us an exciting mix between devising high-tech developments and solving and testing challenges that customers come into direct contact with.
