The Open-S Alliance is open to all manufacturers in the industry who believe in the benefits of a common standard. The organization now welcomes Rotar International B.V. as a member.

Rotar International is a manufacturer with an extensive product line for hydraulic excavators for the demolition and recycling industry. Based in the Netherlands, the company has over the years become a full-service supplier for the demolition and recycling market. Rotar International joins the Open-S Alliance as a Supporting Member.

“We at Rotar International, manufacturer of hydraulic attachments, are delighted to be a member of the Open-S Alliance. We supported the Open-S philosophy from day one. With our joint knowledge, we have developed a perfect solution for the demolition and recycling industry. Today, a lot of our equipment is factory fitted with original OEM integrated fully automatic quick coupler adapters. Our customers experience the many advantages that the plug and play system is offering. Such as safety, weight, compactness and service friendliness”, says Louis Broekhuizen, Commercial Director, Rotar International B. V.

“We are very happy that yet another quality manufacturer of excavator work tools joins the alliance. The Rotar customer can benefit greatly from the Open-S standard as high-value work tools now with ease can be shared between different excavators in order to increase the utilization ratio and improve profitability. As more excavator brands can mount Open-S compliant products from factories this will make it even easier in the future”, says Stefan Stockhaus, Chairman of the Open-S Alliance.
