Complex and highly challenging civil engineering projects primarily demand bespoke solutions. Viaducts, tunnels, quay walls, and railway and road bridges all require extensive knowledge and experience. At Willemen Groep we can count on our engineering office to develop the most appropriate and economically feasible implementation methods for these projects, in close cooperation with the customer. In addition to our know-how and technical competence, our engineers’ clever and inventive approach also plays a decisive role. Moreover, for civil engineering contracts in combination with infrastructure works, we can fully trust our partner companies within the group to help us find the optimal solution with their specific competences.

As a leading road builder and producer of asphalt and concrete, Willemen Groep takes care of a wide range of assignments: road repairs, laying concrete or asphalt on motorways, paving and drainage works, etc. We produce over 1,000,000 tonnes of asphalt per year in our five asphalt plants. Our six concrete and crushing plants spread across the whole country convert building waste into COPRO-approved aggregates. We also have our own transport company to supply our sites and plants.
Our employees are happy to work at night and over the weekend to make sure they get everything done in time. Quality and safety are primary considerations here, as is our carbon footprint. We are constantly on the look-out for more efficient and sustainable production methods. Our research centres and laboratories add indisputable value here, as does our close collaboration with other contractors in the group.

Our specific know-how means Willemen Groep is a very strong player in port and airport works. One of our specialist areas is the construction of sites for port-related activities, such as transhipment terminals, but we’re also at home on the tarmac of Belgian airports. Over recent years we’ve renovated various runways and taxiways, and we’re also familiar with the architectural aspects of airport requirements.

We know more together than we do alone. That’s why Willemen Groep is happy to share knowledge and expertise at an early stage of construction projects. Looking at various aspects in detail together with collaborators allows us to detect any issues early on, so they can be optimised as we come up with technically feasible and affordable concepts.
Our construction team experience makes Willemen Groep very strong in design, build, finance, maintain and operate (DBFMO) formulas and public-private partnership (PPP) projects. We can offer integrated and customised solutions to any challenge thanks to the combination of our different companies’ specific knowledge and experience. And not just in architectural terms, but also when it comes to long-term maintenance and creative finance solutions.
Willemen Groep doesn’t just participate financially alone in projects; with Willemen Project Finance, it also has the necessary network and knowledge to attract borrowed capital. Working in the construction team requires a huge amount of know-how, expertise and flexibility. And this is what makes our group excel. Our role is primarily a guiding one – as we critically determine and optimise the entire construction project throughout its full lifecycle.

In 2014, we took our first steps in executing projects outside our national borders. We completed some great international projects such as the Belgian Embassy in Kinshasa (DR Congo), the Belgian Embassy in Rabat (Morocco), a data centre for CyrusOne in Amsterdam (Netherlands) and one of the most technically advanced container terminals in the world at the port of Tangier (Morocco).
At the end of 2022, we decided to refocus our operations back to our home market and scale down our international presence. Our operations in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg were sold and in other countries we are only completing ongoing projects. Kumpen does, however, retain a strong presence on the Dutch market in sewer renovation.
