Shipping and Dredging Industry
Dutch dredging companies are in demand worldwide for land reclamation projects, maintenance work on canals and rivers and for the construction of ports. Typical of the sector is that companies have evolved from simple sand movers to often main contractors who are also responsible for, for example, quay walls and infrastructure on land. The dredging industry also has a strong link with the offshore industry.
Numbers
The Dutch dredging industry accounts for a turnover of 1.83 billion euros (export 1.56 billion euros) and consists of approximately 75 companies employing 6,300 people.

We also carry out repairs on worn machine parts. We give machines and machine parts a second or even third life. In addition to being faster and cost-effective, this is also better for the environment and the climate.
