Temporary pump installations and ecology: why technology alone is no longer sufficient.

Last Tuesday, the two departed for the Ukrainian capital, and by Saturday, they were back in Friesland. The reason for the visit? To see how they can help after the breach of the Kakhovka Dam. We regularly assist in major floods. For instance, the red water pumps were in England in 2014 and in Limburg in 2017 after the floods there.

At the invitation of the Hunze and Aa’s water board, Van Heck had the opportunity yesterday to present its approach to emergency plans for water management to a delegation from Singapore. Van Heck owes this to its good relationship with the water boards and its characteristic systematic approach.

The Van Heck Group is now 58 years old, and Jeroen van Heck has been thinking about the future of his company for a year. A successor within the family did not come forward. "I did sound out some large companies in the market. The company could complement the work of a large dredging company. But is that positive for Van Heck?"

In February, Van Heck once again underwent the three-day audit by Bureau Veritas. The certificates for both ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 are valid for three years. We are proud of this team achievement!

Within 36 hours after the quote agreement from one of our clients, Van Heck delivers the required equipment. The two trucks left for Italy this morning, and our service technician will be flown in on Thursday to complete the setup.

At the moment, the construction of (high-pressure) piping is in full swing. The piping is prepared in various sizes and will be used for a project this summer. All the necessary piping is expertly tailored for the customer in Noordwolde by our constructors.

Our client Van Oord has posted an interesting article about laying cables for offshore wind farms.
