You will find Aalberts where technology matters and real progress can be made. Humanly, environmentally and financially. We engineer mission-critical technologies enabling a clean, smart and responsible future.
We are a company of mission-critical people who can’t resist going beyond the line of duty. For us, the whole nine yards and the extra mile are only the beginning. For us, good is never good enough. We believe that greatness demands more than ingenuity and that failure is a valuable stop on the way to success. Sharing and discussing ‘bad’ gets us to ‘brilliant’. No matter how big the problem or opportunity is, when we say “we got this”, we won’t let go until there is nothing left to learn. This is how we deliver excellence.
With 12,943 employees, Aalberts operates from 127 locations with activities in over 50 countries.

More than tubes
Van Leeuwen's core business consists of the trade in steel pipes and related products. This is how the company had its start in 1924 as a one-man company in Zwijndrecht, the Netherlands. Since then we have evolved into a company that goes far beyond this. With more products and services, as well as a global network of close to one hundred largely stock-keeping branches in 33 countries in Europe, the Middle East, Australia, Asia and North and South America. With specialist knowledge of logistics processes, stock planning and project management. With knowledge and expertise in the area of applying our products and services in various markets and industries. This is why we can rightly say: Van Leeuwen offers far more than just pipes and tubes.
