About us
We are human-centric in everything we do
People, that is our staff, our network and our clients. They are all equally important. We are a family business that likes to be fair and on an equal footing in how we collaborate and do business. Where everyone takes responsibility and where agreements are met. Only then, can we achieve great things together.
OUR GOAL
Working together fairly and equally
We like to talk to the client directly. On equal footing, which includes other stakeholders. Preferably at an early stage, which allows us to look at other, sometimes smarter solutions, and add more knowledge to the table. It is important to us that all parties are open and honest about their own interests, as it facilitates finding the right working method for everyone to perform optimally.
PARTNERSHIP
We build relationships for the long term
Business is business, is a well-known saying. But with us, business is first and foremost about people. Because we prefer a pleasant way of working. And because we want your collaboration with us to be equally pleasant. A pleasant working relationship means that we are there for each other. Sometimes, our clients have an incident that puts their back against the wall, and they need us right now. This prompts us to take it up a notch, instead of upping our quote. Because that is how we want others to treat us as well. It’s really as simple as that.
HUMAN-CENTRIC
Those who feel good about themselves perform better
We cherish the culture that comes with a family business. Job satisfaction, caring for each other and listening to each other are key elements in this regard. We monitor the workload together, support each other and encourage each other’s growth. It is a truly joint effort.
Many of our staff have a long track record, which means their knowledge often exceeds the specifications of their role. This overlap of knowledge makes colleagues complement and correct each other, because everyone feels responsible for what we make for our clients. We are proud of that!
We love doing business, but business is first and foremost about people. And people need to be well taken care of.

Martin Verkleij
“I’ve been here for 27 years and continue to grow. For example, I am now also a visual welding instructor, allowing me to inspect welds and support our welders.”
Erwin Blom
“I do strength calculations. For me, the thrill is when I manage to meet all the requirements with a minimum amount of material.”
Rik Kuenen

Nick van Jeveren
“I joined as an apprentice at the age of 16. I’m now 32. This means I’ve been here for nearly half my life, with fun assignments and great colleagues. What more could I want?”
Mike Aveling
“Nico and I build our chimneys together. We do this with aerial platforms, hoists and cranes. No room for fear of heights. But all the more for satisfied clients.”

Marco Reijm
“For 20 years, my welding has been tested by X-ray, magnetic or penetrating test, and was always approved. I’m pretty proud of that.”
Vincent Tervooren
