Concrete solutions
One of our expertise
Ballast Nedam deploys a lot of expertise daily, concrete solutions included. Our organisational unit Haitsma Beton is specialised in this. Precast concrete is a specific component within the construction sector. Years of experience have enabled us to build up this expertise.
Even stronger together
Haitsma Beton focuses in particular on assignments with complex and large elements. With a strong reputation for making bridges and viaducts.
Haitsma Beton managing director Wim Comello: "The common thread within is the focus on results, for this it is necessary to be commercially active and to be at the forefront of construction and technology. Those results are achieved with the right people and the right knowledge. There is a lot of overlap in processes and ways of dealing with each other. We are a close-knit team that is constantly able to improve."
Technology as a connecting factor
Concrete requires high standards. The specific expertise is constructive, technological and production-technical. The production technology mainly focuses on how a certain element can be produced efficiently, effectively and with optimal quality.
At the start of each project, we ensure that the mutual expectations are well aligned, which is very important for successful cooperation. Concrete is, therefore, literally and figuratively the connecting factor at the beginning of our cooperation. Together with the client, we make choices using specific prefab solutions and technical specifications: detailing, execution, and design aspects related to other products.

Challenging work
Another example is the bridge in Wanssum, Limburg, where we used 69 metres girders. In doing so, we broke a world record.
With care for the environment
A major development process is the reuse of our materials. For example, we are increasingly working with 'concrete rubble granules', broken material originating from demolished concrete structures. It is used as a substitute for gravel. This sustainable development is an important point of attention within our expertise.
