Wholesaler Provides Continuity for Parts Brand
With a history spanning over 75 years, Vapormatic is a highly respected name among UK farmers and dealers for its reliable, high-quality parts. The announcement by Kramp follows the decision to close Vapormatic’s operations.
“We’re incredibly proud to bring the Vapormatic brand into the Kramp family,” says Des Boyd, UK Country Director at Kramp. “It’s a name that carries real weight in British agriculture and has been trusted by farmers and dealers for generations.
“By combining Vapormatic’s strong legacy with Kramp’s scale, service and technical know-how, we feel we can have a really positive impact on the industry, and it supports our mission to keep farmers farming.”
The vast Vapormatic portfolio of over 11,000 products will be integrated into Kramp’s already extensive range, something Des says has been made possible by the company’s investment in the UK over the last few years.
“Kramp is ready to go. We have received the initial shipments in our warehouse, the products have been loaded onto our database and will be visible on kramp.com from 1st September. Additional stock will follow,” he adds.
Vapormatic customers in the UK can continue to order through their local Kramp dealer. Alternatively, for next-day home delivery, they can apply for a Kramp online account on the Kramp website, which will be linked to their preferred online dealer.
In a recent announcement John Deere said:
To further enhance customer experience, John Deere is expanding ExtraParts into new European markets. ExtraParts is a partnership between John Deere and Kramp which was first launched in 2017. It enables John Deere dealers to support customers full fleet throughout the lifecycle with access to accessories and parts for implements and other machinery brands.
“This expansion in our European market will provide customers with a broader and more flexible range of parts for all machine types, helping them maintain uptime and productivity with ease for their entire fleet through their John Deere Dealership,” said James Child, Manager, Aftermarket & Customer Support Marketing in Europe at John Deere.
Kramp has acquired the Vapormatic aftermarket parts inventory and beginning September 1, 2025, will have the full range of parts available for offer to European customers. This transition ensures continued parts availability and aligns with our commitment to delivering a reliable, distinctive customer experience.
