About us

Hightech System Solutions

Contour Advanced Systems specializes in system integration. We develop and build modular, configurable systems that seamlessly align with our clients' needs.

Specialist in complex custom solutions

We make complex technology practical—whether it’s about security, digitalization, or sustainability. Thanks to our process-driven approach, cross-market expertise, and focus on quality, we deliver system solutions that are both efficient and future-proof.

In doing so, we unburden our clients and help them actively contribute to the major trends that are shaping our society.

Looking ahead

A rapidly changing world calls for smart scalability. That’s why we develop customer-specific solutions based on modular principles and standards. This allows us to continue in delivering speed, quality, and reliability—even with growing volumes and evolving client demands.

  • Customer-specific solutions
  • Short lead times
  • Scalable and future-proof

Sustainable thinking, responsible building

At Contour Advanced Systems, we believe sustainability starts at the design. We make conscious choices about materials, processes, and applications—tailored to each business unit and project. Our focus is on modular systems that last longer and remain flexibly deployable. We apply retrofit solutions to upgrade existing systems rather than replacing them, and we use recycled or reusable materials wherever possible.


With Life Cycle Analyses, we provide insights into the environmental impact of our high-tech solutions. This enables our clients to make well-informed design choices based on carbon footprint considerations.

Our people make the difference

The Contour Advanced Systems team is made up of smart doers – people who thrive on complex challenges and keep going where others stop. Our strength lies in combining technical expertise with fresh ideas. With experience across multiple markets, we often come up with solutions that are just a bit different—and often more effective.

We’re fast, collaborative, and stay sharp under pressure. That’s what makes us proud—and keeps our clients satisfied.

The source of our experience

Contour Advanced Systems traces its roots back to 1905. What began as a family business under the name Klein Poelhuis has grown into a leading system integrator. In 2001, we launched KP Special Projects, focusing on high-tech solutions for the defence and datacentre markets both in the Netherlands and abroad. In 2012, this division was renamed Contour Advanced Systems.

Today, we are active in five markets:  Defence & Security, Intralogistics, Datacentres, Energy storage en Special Enclosures(Innclose). Thanks to this unique combination of technical expertise all under one roof, we can act as a one-stop shop or supply chain manager. From design to installation and maintenance—we deliver quality at every stage.
