Industrial sites

An important share of employment in Belgium is situated on industrial sites. However, many sites are neglected and impoverished. New locations for industrial estates are tolerated less and less, and they have to meet ever-increasing quality demands. The careful use of space is the premise here. Grontmij provides the right process support and content expertise to offer quality spatial, environmental and infrastructural solutions to business’ demand for space.

Complex issues and sustainable, innovative solutions
Grontmij can tackle complex issues. A future-oriented site development, a clever & sustainable design and complementary management and park management guarantee the development of quality and functional industrial sites. We also handle all required detailed studies in a wide variety of disciplines and last but not least we manage the entire communication process for you.

From sand to premise
From market scouting to planning and from realisation to management, Grontmij is the full service provider that can take over parts of the process, or even the entire process. We provide communes and project developers with tailored work and assure the support of entrepreneurs. With our local knowledge, we assure a well-conceived approach for the revitalisation of outdated business sites, the redevelopment of brown-fields and the development of new sustainable sites. Our expertise can be used for both traditional mixed sites and particular sites, such as logistical sites, port or water-bound sites, sites for large space requests…

Restructuring and revitalising
The restructuring and revitalising of existing ‘outdated’ industrial sites continues to move to the top of the political agenda. In order to guarantee the quality of industrial sites, integrated management or park management will have to become common. Grontmij capitalises on this and already handles the park management of industrial sites.

Communication, the missing link
Essential in the (re-)development of an industrial site is the communication between the initiative taker, the local government and the entrepreneurs. Grontmij acts as this often-missing link. The creation of understanding for one another’s position and managing the respective expectations contributes to the optimal rollout of a project.
