Back in 1932, when the Deforche Construction Group (DCG) was founded, the company specialised in the construction of traditional timber greenhouses. It was only in 1958 when the next generation of Deforches took the helm that the Deforche Construction Group really started to take off. The company turned the sector on its head with the introduction of steel and metal in greenhouse construction and spearheaded a pioneering role for itself.

We continue this tradition to this day. As pioneers within the sector, the Deforche Construction Group has the agility to effortlessly adapt to changes and continuously innovate to meet the needs of our clients. As an industry knowledge centre, we are always on the lookout for the latest trends and new technologies. At the same time we follow our established Deforche approach, where a strong client-relationship is key. Today, our clients are integral members of our project team: the greater their involvement, the more successful the project. 

The expertise we have built up over the last century is now recognised internationally. We have become an international expert in the design and construction of steel, glass and aluminium greenhouse structures. Each of our projects tells its own story: the story of how we have utilised our technical expertise to provide optimum climate control.

Deze geeft de zekerheid dat het opzwellend verfsysteem volgens de richtlijnen van TV238 is aangebracht.

Since it was founded in 1996, Techno Métal Industrie has developed a range of metal construction activities in four areas, mainly aimed at major civil engineering and construction markets in the broadest sense.

Four business lines

• METAL STRUCTURES - In metal construction, TMI designs, manufactures and installs heavy industrial frames, residential frames and metal frames for shopping centres.
• INFRASTRUCTURE WORKS - TMI designs, manufactures and installs bridges, footbridges, drawbridges and bowstrings for civil engineering and railways.
• HYDRAULIC WORKS - TMI carries out precision mechanical welding work for the waterways sector. The company builds and installs equipment and valves for lock gates, dams and other waterway structures.
• IRONWORK - Techno Métal Industrie designs, manufactures and installs industrial ironwork, domestic ironwork and ironwork for flat blocks. Techno Métal Industrie is the only Walloon company with Class 7 approval for ironwork.

Located in the heart of Wallonia

TMI's location on a single site in the Seilles (Andenne) industrial estate, in the heart of Wallonia and close to all major road and waterway links, is a key advantage for the company.

Ferris is a part of the Syndus Group and has offices in the Netherlands and Belgium. We design, manufacture and assemble steel structures for the industrial, (petro) chemical, energy, food and construction sectors. We are also specialised in factory maintenance, existing structure modifications (brownfield) and safety scans. All steel structures are manufactured in well-equipped production facilities.

Ferris has a long tradition as a family business. It was founded in 1955 as the construction company Eyke-Hogendoorn. Thanks to the crane and machine rental department, the addition of Amerplastics in 1973 and Fiberstruct in 1989, the Eyke-Hogendoorn group began acquiring more and more tools, allowing it to offer its customers the best service possible. In 2011, the Eyke-Hogendoorn steel department was renamed Ferris, and the Eyke-Hogendoorn group was named the Syndus Group. We now employ a team of over 115 and are a recognised training company for young professionals. Ferris encourages its employees to continue their professional development throughout their careers.

Three locations allow Ferris to offer the highest level of service to its clients in the Netherlands and Belgium.

Al 40 jaar lang staat edibo voor industriële gebouwen en kantoren die kwaliteit, knowhow en toekomstgerichtheid uitstralen. Flexibele gebouwen uit beton en staal die al uw bedrijfsprocessen versterken in plaats van ze af te remmen. We dagen onszelf uit om de invulling van een industriegebouw te blijven herdenken. Om ook de meest complexe bedrijfsprocessen en gebouwontwerpen te vertalen in een financieel en bouwtechnisch optimale uitvoering. En om ongeacht de opdracht op ieder moment een tandje hoger te schakelen of bij te sturen.

Hiervoor rekenen we op een uitgebalanceerd team met onder meer sterke calculator-verkopers, een intern studiebureau en staalatelier, en een ervaren buitendienst op de werven.

Aelterman is een familiale onderneming met 80 medewerkers gevestigd aan het Kluizendok in de Gentse Kanaalzone. Als prominente nichespeler in het bouwen van stalen bruggen, sluisdeuren en aanverwante metalen constructies heeft het bedrijf op 1 maart 2022 haar 70 jarig bestaan gevierd. Met een jaaromzet van 25 mio vond de familie Aelterman dat de tijd was aangebroken om op zoek te gaan naar schaalvergroting. Met Artes Group vonden ze de geschikte partner.

Artes Group en Aelterman zijn geen onbekenden voor elkaar. Beide bedrijven hebben meermaals hun expertise gebundeld in uitdagende bouwprojecten. Zeer recent werden de Theunisbruggen aan het Albertkanaal in Antwerpen opgeleverd. Een zeer geslaagde samenwerking!

Infrastructuurwerken vormen een belangrijk onderdeel van Artes Group. Op vandaag worden deze werken als geïntegreerde projecten in de markt gezet. Het uitvoeren van verschillende disciplines binnen de Artes Group is een meerwaarde voor onze klanten. De overname van de firma Aelterman moet in deze context bekeken worden.

ZINQ - België and ZINQ - Nederland together form the Belgian-Dutch branch of Fontaine Holdings, the largest European group specialising in the hot-dip galvanisation of steel. With over 500 employees spread across branches in Belgium (Pelt, Houthalen, Antwerp, Ghent, Ypres and Charleroi) and the Netherlands (Veenoord), ZINQ galvanises more than 130,000 tonnes of steel every year. In addition to galvanising, the group also offers duplex systems, such as powder coating and wet painting, making it a ‘one-stop shop’ for customers. ZINQ has some of the most advanced plants in Europe and has several quality brands in its portfolio. The patented microZINQ, for example, offers an ultra-thin but extremely durable zinc layer and is popular in the automotive sector. In addition, duroZINQ offers a high-quality standard for hot-dip galvanisation and colorZINQ is ideal for coated galvanised steel. The company further distinguishes itself with its own R&D department, an internal logistics system and numerous certifications, including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and Cradle to Cradle for its sustainable processes.

Sustainability

The focus on sustainability is at the heart of ZINQ's business strategy. Hot-dip galvanisation of steel is seen as an important link in a circular construction sector because it gives steel a very long lifespan and prevents corrosion. Furthermore, ZINQ uses fully recyclable zinc and, with ecoZINQ, offers an innovative product with a low CO₂ footprint. ecoZINQ combines recycled zinc and zinc made with renewable energy, which contributes to more sustainable construction.

voestalpine Sadef heeft een 75-jarige expertise in ontwerp en productie van montageklaar gerolvormde stalen profielen. Op zijn hoogtechnologische productielijnen produceert voestalpine Sadef dagelijks 200 km profiel in plaatdiktes van 0.4 tot 11mm, en uit bandbreedtes tot 1000mm. Het succes van uw project is onze uitdaging.

MISSION

Among stakeholders of today and tomorrow, we want to make hot dip galvanization widely recognized as the most effective and sustainable form of corrosion prevention for steel.

STRATEGIC STORY

Hot dip galvanizing is a unique process and has been the "world champion in corrosion prevention" for more than 150 years. No other method even comes close to this most complete protection of steel.

Furthermore, it is also the smartest and most responsible choice. In the fight against global warming, circular construction has a major role to play. Making better use and reusing scarce raw materials is the common thread here. Thanks to hot dip galvanizing, we are aiming for 100% circular steel. The best protection and the most responsible choice.
