The company Intercol bv was founded in December 1972 by Hermann Barentz and integrated into the Barentz Group.

As the Barentz Group developed into a specialist in the supply of raw materials in the life science production fields of food, pet food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics and focused on the core business, Steven de Jong, who has been Managing Director of Intercol since 1990, took over the company in 2013.

Over the past 49 years, Intercol bv has grown organically into a strong, reliable partner for industrial adhesive applications. Started in the 70s with 200m² of production area, today 6000m² are available for development, production and logistics. The new finished goods warehouse with an additional storage capacity of 1000t was last put into operation at the turn of the year 2021.

The growth is reflected in the sales development: in the last 20 years the number has doubled. 45 employees, concentrated in the areas of R&D, application technology / sales and production, currently generate 19 million euros per year.
