Hercorub NV

Hercorub is a Belgian company specializing in the development and production of high-quality rubber compounds and vulcanized rubber articles, serving a diverse range of industries including automotive, construction, machinery, energy, agriculture, and the process industry. With its headquarters in Lanaken and a second production facility in the Czech Republic, Hercorub offers tailor-made technical solutions using advanced techniques such as moulding, extrusion, and injection molding. The company’s expertise is built on decades of knowledge, continuous investment in research and development, and a commitment to delivering customer-specific solutions, whether for small custom batches or large-scale industrial orders.

Hercorub’s operations are underpinned by a rigorous quality management system in line with ISO 9001 standards, ensuring quality control at every stage of production—from raw materials to finished products. The company maintains an extensive portfolio of around 400 rubber compound specifications, adapting properties such as tensile strength, UV resistance, and temperature resistance to meet the unique requirements of each project. Recent investments in automation, such as the integration of automated dosing machines, further enhance production efficiency and product consistency. As a family-owned business, Hercorub combines flexibility and personal service with the capacity to serve both multinational corporations and SMEs across Europe.

Odoo was chosen because of its native ability to support very complex manufacturing processes with thousands of multi-level bill of materials, automated and semi-automated manufacturing steps and supply chain management. But also its adaptability and integration with automated quality monitoring and SCADA systems was a key factor. And of course, Odoo is also great at supporting marketing, human resources, sales, accounting and many other business processes.
