Effective water management is essential in the Netherlands. Traditionally, the focus was on draining water to keep areas dry. However, due to the impacts of climate change, the emphasis is shifting towards capturing, retaining, and reusing water. We provide the necessary solutions.
Water
With thoughtful water management, we can make significant strides in addressing climate change. Efficient drainage of precipitation and used water through pipe systems will always be necessary. In addition, it becomes important to capture water locally. By disconnecting rainwater from the sewer system, we relieve the sewer network and enable water reuse. This approach can be further enhanced by combining it with green solutions, such as green roofs and tree growth areas. The result: a resilient environment.
We’ve got this.
PIPELINE SYSTEMS
Pipeline systems are indispensable for effective, sustainable water management. We integrate modern technologies and sustainable materials to efficiently drain water while preventing waste and pollution. Investing in smart pipeline systems helps protect water sources and adapt to climate change. This is integrated water management from which not only we but also future generations will benefit.
INFILTRATION SYSTEMS
Sustainable water management in urban areas is not possible without infiltration systems. Instead of draining water directly into the sewer, infiltration systems capture the water, allowing it to gradually be absorbed into the soil. Meanwhile, the water can be reused in various ways — such as watering the garden, flushing toilets, or running a washing machine. This helps save drinking water.
SAVING DRINKING WATER
Saving precious drinking water by reusing rainwater. Although the Netherlands is known as a water-rich country, we face increasing water scarcity. Experts warn of a national drinking water shortage. That means it’s time for action—every (rain) drop counts! In November 2024, we reached a major milestone: together with all users of the JustNimbus rainwater system, we have saved ten million liters of drinking water!
PURIFYING WATER END KEEPING FEET DRY
Separators are used to separate grease, oil, or gasoline from water, often as part of a water treatment system that prevents environmental pollution and sewer contamination. Pump chambers and dewatering wells regulate water levels. Both are designed and manufactured to meet project-specific requirements—sometimes large, sometimes small, but always custom-made.

Green
The many benefits of urban greenery are well known. It absorbs CO₂, purifies the air, and provides cooling. It helps prevent flooding, supports biodiversity, and is important for our mental well-being. Green spaces enhance the living environment and increase property values. But how do you make it happen?
