The features of this product were so unique, that a new standard in spraying technology was created. Nobody could have imaged then that this innovation would be the first in a long line of developments, each representing a new landmark in the spraying sector. The national and international success achieved by the spraying equipment inspired Dofra to launch other products on the agricultural market
and the market for food processing. Highly specialised experts from the metal and plastics sector were attracted to the company and the engineering department strengthened by the addition of top industrial designers. All because Dofra was not just interested in producing competitive products - Dofra aimed to design the very best products available. The ambitions of the past are still today's source of inspiration. This is demonstrated not only by our organisational structure, but also by our products. We reflect as no other the ever-changing dynamism of the agricultural and the food processing sector. By applying the latest technology and constantly initiating creative innovation. In 2003 Dofra bv started a joint venture with Stephen and Peter Backus. This joint venture, under the name of Backus Foodtec, was terminated in 2008 when both Peter and Steven Backus retired from the company and Dofra integrated Backus Foodtec into Dofra. This is the origin to our current trade name; Dofra Foodtec bv. Dofra Foodtec is one of the most innovative companies in the sector of machine producers for food processing machines, world wide, with several patens on bright innovations. Dofra is also the world market leader in equipment for the automatic watering of mushrooms.
