“Like the ripples in a pond, the work of one man can spread out and touch the lives of many others.” This famous quote from an unknown author certainly applied to Wim van Doorn, managing director of Candy Recycling Installations B.V., who died last month after a serious illness. He was 69.
Van Doorn established Candy Recycling in the Netherlands in 1987. The company specialized in the manufacture of equipment designed to recover candy rework. He passionately dedicated his life to the confectionery industry, always focusing on continuous innovation. It was van Doorn who developed the technology and the machinery for recovering all kinds of confectionery rework.
