Fast & Easy Self Bag Drop Solutions

Date 26.06.2012

QuinTech Engineering Innovations has changed its company name to “Type22”.

This decision was made to put extra force behind the company’s new strategy and international expansion plans. After 6 years of combining baggage handling consultancy services with product development, the board of Type22 made the choice to leave consultancy behind and now focus completely on delivering innovative baggage handling products. With, for example, BAGCHECKTM widely installed at London Heathrow Terminal 5 and Scan&Fly® under investigation at several airports worldwide, Type22 is confident that now is the right time for this strategic adjustment. Roel Reijnen, co-founder and general director of Type22, comments: “We are extremely content with our new brand strategy. All Type22 eyes are focused ahead. We believe in our products and are now in a position to further intensify our technological developments, pursue market opportunities and form new partnerships to continue supporting our customers with high quality baggage handling products.”

As part of its new strategy, Type22 also recently secured capital investment by Percival Participations B.V., TIIN Capital and VDL B.V. The investment will be used to strengthen Type22’s marketing and R&D efforts and supports the company’s ambition to become a global leader in self bag drop solutions. Maarten Derks, Partner at TIIN Capital: “Type22 has a great reputation and track record amongst their customers. With a solid technical foundation, experience with innovation in baggage handling, and great overall company culture, they hold key ingredients to become a successful international player. We expect to see many more innovations like Scan&Fly from them.”
