Ahead in Industrial Distribution since 1992

Thanks to the EDiS network, the partners benefit from each other’s experience, strategy optimization and purchasing power. 

Europe has played a big roll in EDiS. Since the foundation in 1992, all EDiS partners have shared a common goal: to connect markets and their stakeholders across our continent as well as creating a successful collaboration across economic and cultural boundaries.

The EDiS Network Idea

EDiS group consists of a pool of leading European distributors, which even though operating separately in their own markets, are sharing their knowledge for even better performance, accompanied by common purchasing activities around the world.  The core product ranges are industrial and hydraulic hoses, couplings as well as fluid handling systems.

The EDiS network exists since 1992 and consists currently of 10 independent companies, representing all markets in Europe. All companies are service orientated in sales and logistics and run their own production or assembling workshops to offer added value to the customer. They are all known for their engineering capacities in the world of hoses and other rubber as well as plastic products. EDiS partners are able to supply customers in Europe and overseas.

In total, all members combined employ 2,988 employees in 190 points of sale in 25 countries. Currently, our total purchase volume is more than 500 mil. Euro, but the EDiS network is determined to grow. Therefore, EDIS is always prepared for new members. The benefits for the EDiS members include that we are a distribution partners of leading brand manufacturers and function as a door-opener for companies which want to enter the European industrial market.
