Production worker Alphen aan den Rijn • Luba

Vacature in het kort

Volledige vacaturetekst

As a production worker, you will work at the hub of an innovative recycling company, where end products are made from previously recycled materials. The delivered old mattresses are compressed so that up to 5,500 kilos can be transported by truck to another location. Old mattresses are dismantled at various factories in the Netherlands: foam, latex, and metal components are separated. These then return to the hub in Alphen aan den Rijn, where you will get to work.

You start your workday by carefully processing these foam blocks. Using modern machines, you load the production equipment with the correct material. The blocks are ground in a flake mill, after which the material is mixed with glue in a special mixing chamber. The mass then goes into a fill cylinder, where it is compressed into a firm, uniform base.

Next comes an important quality step: the material is steamed to 100 degrees Celsius to kill bacteria and optimize the structure. You cut the rolls to size using machines, apply glue powder, and laminate them with paper or non-woven material. You then neatly finish the edges and prepare the end products for shipment. All of this is done by the machines, but you ensure that the necessary materials are available and perform physical tasks around the process.

Since you are working with end materials, accuracy is extra important. The products are used as underlayments for carpets and insulation applications, primarily for export to countries such as England. You maintain a clean workspace, perform basic quality checks, and contribute to a smooth and sustainable production process.

• Full-time work in an innovative, growing company with the prospect of a permanent contract

• A clean workplace with modern machines and clear processes

• Salary up to €2,750 gross per month, depending on experience

• 25 vacation days, pension scheme, and fun team outings

• On Fridays, we often get fries for the whole team and enjoy them together!

• You are physically fit, eager to learn, and detail-oriented

• You speak Dutch or good English

• You have a sense of responsibility and work neatly

• You live in or near Alphen aan den Rijn

• You are willing to work in two shifts in the future (06:00–15:00 and 14:00–23:00)

The organization is a pioneer in mattress recycling: what others consider waste, we make usable again. In Alphen aan den Rijn, they work with precision and respect for the material. The company operates in the recycling sector and processes residual materials into valuable end products for, among others, the interior design and insulation markets. The work atmosphere is informal, down-to-earth, and result-oriented. People work hard, but there is also room for humor and collegiality.
