Projects
Curious about a sample of what we can do? Here you'll find some impressive projects that the teams at the Verhelst Group have enthusiastically worked on over the past months. From demolition and earthworks to infrastructure works, and from sand extraction to asphalt production. The result is always worth it! And this is just a selection of our many projects, not nearly everything!
Supplementary Works De Haan
Verhelst Aannemingen contributed to the beach replenishment works in De Haan for the main contractor Group De Cloedt. This maintenance replenishment is necessary to protect our beaches from storm surges that continuously reduce the buffer. The works proceeded as follows: a dredger was positioned off the coast and discharged its sand onto the beach via a pipeline. Two excavators guided the pipeline to direct the sand to the correct region, after which Verhelst Aannemingen further guided the sand to the right place to level and adequately raise the beach. With the GPS system in our leveling machine, we can finish the beach accurately to the planned height.
Assembly Wolff 6020.8 in the heart of Antwerp
Have you recently seen the skyline of Antwerp? Yes? Then you have probably noticed that a brand new Wolff tower crane has appeared! Our team of tower crane technicians recently traveled to Antwerp to install a new Wolff 6020.8 tower crane for our client Hooyberghs. The crane is extremely suitable for carrying out work in urban areas because of its relatively small footprint (a chassis of 3.2x3.2m and a mast of 1.5m x 1.5m). After installation, the crane was put into service by one of our service technicians. Are you also looking for the right crane for your project?

A Blue FM Gru fast-erecting crane: the perfect addition for Saey-De Pauw
For the first time, we have supplied a unique blue quick-assembly crane to our loyal customer Saey-De Pauw. This crane is specially produced for them in their company colors and is equipped with the latest technologies such as a frequency-controlled drive. With a maximum lifting weight of 5 tons, a jib of 40 meters, and a lifting capacity at the end of the jib of 1.1 tons, this crane is ideal for large projects. Moreover, the crane can be assembled quickly and easily thanks to the efficient hydraulic technology. Saey-De Pauw has been a loyal customer of Verhelst Machines for years and their new FM Gru 1140 is already their third purchase with us. In addition to this new crane, they also have a Condecta 4513 and an FM Gru 1131. We are grateful for the trust and are determined to continue supporting them with our top products and service.
Pump up the track
Pump it up! In Middelkerke, we collaborated with Velosolutions on the construction of an asphalt pump track. Check here how our teams from Top-Mix and TopAsfalt pumped all their energy into this super cool course for BMX riders, scooters, and boarders.
Demolition Works Meir Corner
Demolishing the old Proximus buildings on the Meir, the busiest shopping street in Antwerp? Talk about a challenge! During this project, we are taking into account numerous safety measures, dust reduction, great height, and the lack of space to literally tear the place down. Fortunately, we could rely on our latest addition, a Volvo crawler excavator with a demolition boom of no less than 36(!) meters. Let's go! More about this project
