Stadskanaal, Netherlands – SealteQ and SSB Bouman announce that they are joining forces. SSB Bouman, a valued specialist in industrial steel preservation since 1975, is becoming part of the SealteQ Group.
Although the SealteQ Group has been a strong player in steel preservation for many years, SSB Bouman, based in Hoogeveen, adds a unique focus on high-quality and certified preservation work. With expertise in the execution of steel preservation projects, both onshore and offshore, the facility of a large blasting & spray booth and compliance with strict standards such as NORSOK M501, this offers crucial added value for complex projects within the infrastructure, industry and offshore sectors.
Their thorough approach fits seamlessly with SealteQ’s core values: craftsmanship, reliability and continuity. Moreover, the acquisition does not change the strength of the team: the staff will continue to play an essential role and their specialist knowledge will strengthen the SealteQ Group’s collective knowledge base.
André Hofman, CEO of SSB Bouman: ‘For us, joining the SealteQ Group feels like a natural next step. We share the same values, the same passion for craftsmanship and the same desire to build a sustainable future. I am proud of where we are as a team and look forward to continuing to grow together with SealteQ.’
Martin van der Leest, CEO of SealteQ: ‘SSB Bouman’s professional knowledge of high-quality preservation perfectly complements SealteQ’s expertise in the field of steel preservation. This enables us to provide the most comprehensive and sustainable total solution for all essential construction and civil engineering works.’
With the addition of SSB Bouman, the SealteQ Group now has 13 branches. Thanks to its further specialisation in steel, the SealteQ Group is strengthening its position as a multidisciplinary company. Together, the branches are committed to the sustainable maintenance of concrete and steel structures.
