Stadskanaal, Netherlands – Civiele technieken deBoer and Rijnstaal Nieuwegein have joined the SealteQ Group. The existing Marconi Holding group of companies (including Civiele technieken deBoer bv, Rijnstaal Nieuwegein bv, Lasbedrijf De Rooij bv, deBoer – international bv) will continue as a separate division alongside the existing SealteQ companies under the existing SealteQ Group.
Both management teams see this as a highly relevant and strong combination. Because the disciplines, services and size complement each other perfectly and are closely aligned, this new partnership is well equipped to tackle major challenges at home and abroad. Theo Hendriks is stepping down from the management team and saying goodbye after 40 years of great commitment. Otherwise, the management and executive teams of the companies will remain unchanged.
Our joint portfolio now includes considerably more options, particularly for the renewal and renovation of our infrastructure. This is very attractive for both small and large projects and offers simplicity for our clients in the private and public sectors. The range of services includes concrete and foundation repair, concrete and steel coating, cathodic protection, steel renovation, steel and concrete reinforcement and steel structures, jacking, replacement of bearings, smart auxiliary structures and innovative construction methods. This pooling of expertise is therefore a logical and forward-looking step.
Anton van Vliet, Director: ‘After a lengthy and careful process, we selected SealteQ. The toolkits of both companies are complemented by truly relevant additions: pure added value. In addition, this choice also guarantees our independence and autonomy, enabling us to maintain the right focus and vision. We are truly on the right track.’
Jan Willem Warner, director: ‘Apart from all the added value in terms of knowledge and expertise, we also see clear similarities in the core values of the companies. With people and the organisation at the forefront and clear and short lines of communication in which rapid progress can be made when necessary.’
Martin van der Leest, CEO of SealteQ: ‘We are delighted with this merger. CT de Boer’s expertise in Rijnstaal is an essential reinforcement of our existing services. By joining forces, we are able to offer our customers a comprehensive service and jointly benefit from the innovative capabilities of both companies. We offer the certainty that they can turn to a single integrated specialist for all challenging construction (maintenance) issues. The Netherlands faces a major challenge in replacing and renovating outdated infrastructure. Collaboration, innovative strength and future-oriented thinking are important core values in this regard.”
The Marconi Holding companies (CT deBoer, Rijnstaal, Lasbedrijf De Rooij and deBoer – international) remain based in Nieuwegein and work every day with approximately 70 specialists in the technical Champions League in our field throughout Western Europe.
