CAT visiting Van Heck: a behind-the-scenes look at global water displacement
Onlangs mochten wij een team van Caterpillar verwelkomen op onze ontwerp en productie locatie in Noordwolde voor een exclusief kijkje achter de schermen bij Van Heck. Tijdens het bezoek kregen de gasten een indruk van hoe wij wereldwijd tijdelijke pompinstallaties inzetten voor uitdagende watermanagementprojecten. Van overstromingen en baggerwerkzaamheden tot offshore- en havenprojecten: betrouwbaarheid en continuïteit staan daarbij altijd centraal.
Together we looked at our HK700 and HK800 pump units, powered by Cat® C27 and C32 engines. These installations are designed to perform 24/7 under the toughest conditions. From extreme heat in the Middle East to long-term use on large-scale hydraulic engineering projects worldwide.
The visit was all about innovation, technology, and collaboration. In particular, the collaboration with Caterpillar and Zeppelin Power Systems plays an important role in developing reliable and efficient pumping installations with maximum performance in a compact footprint.
With a growing international fleet and projects around the world, we continue to invest in sustainable, powerful, and reliable solutions for temporary water displacement.

Caterpillar & Van Heck
Reliability is no minor matter for Van Heck. Especially in projects where continuity, power, and technical certainty are crucial, we rely on partners who uphold the same standards we do. That's why we have exclusively chosen Caterpillar for many years: a brand that repeatedly proves itself in power, quality, and reliability. This shared focus forms the basis for a strong relationship and a partnership that we confidently continue to build upon.
We look back on an inspiring visit and thank the Caterpillar team for their interest, technical discussions, and great collaboration.
