Kerkhofs Parket (B)
WE THINK SUSTAINABLY THAT’S WHY WE’VE ADDED THE EMISSION-FREE PRODUCTS OF OUR PARTNER VERMEISTER TO OUR WHOLESALE PARQUET RANGE From seventy to a thousand square metres of parquet per day. In 1993, with an intrinsic passion for wood, Willem Kerkhofs, together with his wife Petra, started a parquet factory and wholesale business in Peer (B). Kerkhofs Parket has grown from a small family business to a major player on the B2B market.
Like father, like son. Willem Kerkhofs is totally convinced of that. Willem’s great-grandfather was a forest developer and handed on his passion to his son, who started a sawmill. Willem’s father had his own wood trade and planing mill where Willem himself spent many hours working and acquired his ongoing interest in wood. This passion laid the foundation for Kerkhofs Parket.

Today, Kerkhofs Parket comprises an enthusiastic team of eighteen people and they have a strong European network. Most clients are retailers, but no fewer than nine hundred are from all over Europe. ‘No request or idea is too much to ask. Nothing makes us happier than meeting everyone’s parquet wishes with our customised work.’
