BESIX Infra, formerly Heijmans Infra, has been operating in the Belgian road construction sector since 1969, at the time under the name of B.A.B. nv, or Belgische Asfalt- en Betonmaatschappij.
The ISO 9001 quality certificate for carrying out road construction and associated projects was awarded.
The VCA certificate was awarded.
In 1998, B.A.B. changed its name to Heijmans Aannemingen nv. This is part of the Heijmans nv Group based in Rosmalen.
In 1998, we also acquired full control of J.D. Janse nv, which also mainly works on complex sewerage projects.
In 2003, the name was changed to Heijmans Infra.
In the same year, Heijmans Infra was merged with the Infrastructure department of Algemene Ondernemingen in Bilzen. The company was now engaged in road construction, water treatment, the laying of rail and tram tracks, and the production of bituminous products and asphalt.
In February 2017 , the Heijmans Group reviewed its strategy and shifted its focus back to the Netherlands. This included selling all the shares in its Belgian companies Heijmans Bouw, Heijmans Infra, Belasco and Van den Berg to BESIX, the largest Belgian group in the construction industry.
It was a new start which will only strengthen the existing structure and continue the ongoing growth trend for the ‘newly’ established Belgian figures in the world of construction: BESIX Infra, Van den Berg and Belasco.
