Honnens

About

Founded in 1974, Honnens is a private headquartered in Tarp, Germany with approximately 50-200 employees specializing in Biogas.

Gebr. Honnens GmbH is a multi-generational family enterprise established in 1974 as a distributor of mineral oils and agricultural supplies. Over five decades, it has evolved into a comprehensive wholesale and retail operation serving the agricultural and renewable energy sectors. The company specializes in biogas and combined heat and power (BHKW) systems, entering the biogas market early in 2004 and establishing it as a core business line. Honnens offers integrated solutions across four primary product categories: agricultural supplies (feed, fencing, livestock care), biogas components and BHKW spare parts, silage management products (films, sealants, nets), and lubricants for vehicles, machinery, and biogas equipment. The company emphasizes hands-on consulting and customized solutions delivered through multiple channels: physical retail locations (Tarp market), field service representatives, telephone support, and an online shop launched in 2012. Currently managed by third-generation family members Björn and Torsten Honnens (owners) with sons Pascal and Niklas in operations, the company maintains strong regional roots while expanding nationwide reach. Honnens partners with established suppliers including Fuchs Europe (lubricants), Kramp (agricultural machinery parts), and Nordwest (tools) to ensure next-day delivery capabilities.
