"the blue way"
We think and act sustainably and holistically. In doing so, we take all facets of sustainability into account. Economy, ecology and functionality are inseparable for us.
We call this basic principle ‘the blue way’. It pervades our entire company – internally and externally.
‘the blue way’ combines reason and emotion. Stringent, goal-oriented processes that allow space for creative freedom. In our projects, we always include the creative right hemisphere of the brain and the rational left hemisphere. This results in holistic thinking.
A multidisciplinary group with over 115 years’ experience.
Since first going into action in 1909, the BESIX Group has over the years grown into a multidisciplinary company with a leading position in its markets: construction, property development and concessions. This wide-range expertise enables us to handle every aspect of a project, from financing over designing and building to operating and maintaining.
BESIX Contracting specializes in construction, infrastructure and marine works, often in contracts with a high level of complexity. In Benelux and France, the Group’s regional affiliates BESIX Infra, Vanhout, Wust, Jacques Delens and Lux TP ensure a strong presence and a local approach. With Franki Foundations, Socogetra, BESIX Environment and BESIX Unitec, the Group offers specialist niche solutions for the building market like deep foundations, geo-engineering, road construction, water treatment and cable and pipeline construction.
Backed by its experience in its home markets, BESIX has built up strong positions outside Europe. A typical example is the Middle East, where over a 60 year period BESIX has built up an impressive portfolio. In 2018, BESIX strengthened its position in Australia by acquiring, through a public takeover bid, all the shares of construction company Watpac Ltd.
In 2025 the Group achieved sales revenues of EUR 4.2 billion. The Group employs 10,000 persons in 25 countries across 4 continents.
