Brownfield Development

Population levels are growing. In addition to more and ­better-suited residential units, we also continue to need space for businesses. This exerts increasing pressure on green space, which is scarce and finite. We will thus have to do more with less space. By developing heavily ­contaminated or derelict sites, the so-called brownfields, we contribute to decreasing the use of green space. As a pioneer in Belgium, we are committed to eliminating ­environmental risks in view of the optimal redevelopment of derelict sites. As such, we revitalise long neglected ­polluted sites such as former factory premises or former landfills in a daring and innovative way.
