Family company since 1980

Three generations of cooling, ice and professional equipment expertise.

Antwerp roots, European ambition

Built on practical refrigeration knowledge, not generic e-commerce.

The family entered refrigeration when cooling technology first started changing the food business. That practical background still defines KdubbelA today: understand the application, choose the right machine, work with reliable brands and support the customer after the sale.

The webshop is the next step. It makes specialist advice and professional equipment easier to reach for buyers in Belgium and, increasingly, across Europe.

From family trade to specialist webshop

The company story is longer than the webshop. KdubbelA combines old technical roots with a modern buying process for professional customers.

Early 1900s

Family roots in food and refrigeration

The Van den Bosch family story started in the meat business. When the first refrigerators arrived, the family moved into refrigeration and technical installations.

Before 1980

Large supermarket installations

Before KdubbelA, the family built a major installation company for supermarkets, at one point working with more than 100 employees on professional refrigeration projects.
