At P.K. Jeppesen & Søn A/S, we are proud to have more than 135 years of experience in precision work, innovative solutions, and tailor-made machine construction. Our journey began in Thy, Denmark, where we manufactured windmills for draining meadows, and today, we deliver advanced machines and components to customers all over the world.

Our history is a testimony to development, adaptability, and consistent quality. We have evolved from producing agricultural equipment to embracing CNC technology, automation, and robotic integration. Yet our core values remain the same: quality, precision, and personal service.
