My name is Yvo Trimbos. As a school boy, I was mostly interested in technical courses like mathematics, physics and chemistry. Having done VWO (pre-university education), I started to study Chemical Engineering at the HTS in Breda (higher vocational education). When I finished this study, I continued at the Technical University in Eindhoven, where I received my Master's diploma as Chemical Engineer in 1995 (ir.).
My first job in the “PU- Business” was as a laboratory employee in a company making (mainly) OCF products (One Component Foam = canister PU-foam). I continued my career as R&D Manager at an aerosol-company in Bavaria (Germany). After that, I became R&D Manager at a family owned Dutch enterprise that produces PU rigid block foam (PUR and PIR) and 2-component PU systems. Having done this for almost 5 years, I decided to start on my own as an independent consultant. With approx. 25 years of experience in the PU-industry, I am sure I can help companies with chemistry, technology, legislation, laboratory management, etcetera.
Since late 2013, I also work as R&D Team Leader and Technical Product Manager for a big Belgian company, specialised in sealants, adhesives and PU foams. With YPU Consulting, I still do my consultancy work, though.
