Bringing scientific concepts to life in an engineering context
At NAPKIN we focus around the chemistry, physics and materials science that underlies engineering projects. What matters to us is the quantification in terms of basic physics and fundamental understanding of the processes that are involved in your engineering problem. Once these are identified the problem can be tackled in the optimum way.

TEAM
ARJEN DE JONG
“ruthlessly creative & hands on”
Arjen completed a PhD in Aerospace, Aeronautical and Astronautical/Space Engineering from Delft university of technology. Passionate about finding new solutions for existing engineering problems or brainstorming ways to make the normal even better. His specialties include computational fluid dynamics, aerodynamics, acoustics, high tech innovation, and product development.
JAN GROENEWOLD
“getting the science right”
Problem solver with background in physics, chemistry and materials science. Jan’s flexible personality combined with this solid basis enables to swiftly master new technologies and problems. His style is fresh and driven by finding simple solutions. He stops only when the right physics and chemistry is found that connects to the problem.
GIJS SCHIMMEL
“keeping momentum and overview”
Being trained as an applied physicist, Gijs took up engineering during his career. How does he get inspired? “Whenever I can transform a thorough understanding of underlying physics into a seemingly obvious and simple product.” His passion: “Deliver well engineered products that fit the market.”
