History
Belgium Tool and Die was established in Lynchburg, Virginia, by Alphonse Stroobants, a Belgian immigrant, in 1962, with expertise in high-quality precision machining. The company was founded on traditional values of quality, pride, work ethic, and craftsmanship, and entrepreneurial spirit. This unique combination of qualities provided a strong foundation for the company to develop innovative production machines that have revolutionized the can-making industry.
In 1975, Belgium Tool and Die capitalized on their success by introducing an advanced rotary can cutting machine that enabled them to expand their reach to a global market. As a result, Belvac Production Machinery was formed. The success of this product allowed Belvac to enhance its credibility and reputation, which led to the development of a bottom coating machine in 1978. Belvac’s growth continued in 1982 when it purchased the Colorado division of Irvin Industries, which had a necking machine licensed from Coors. Belvac applied its unparalleled standards and innovative improvements to the original Irvin design, resulting in the Belvac Necker, which set new global production standards.
