Ad Bezemer, CEO and Owner: “Sustainability is not just a social and ethical responsibility; it is something our clients and partners expect and demand of us and rightly so.

Bezemer is ISO 14001 certified. This achievement confirms that we have a solid environmental policy in place and that we are committed to operate responsibly and sustainably. We constantly aim to lower our ecological footprint. We do this by reducing our nitrogen and CO2 output and working as circularly as possible. For example, the solar panels on the roof of our workshop and led lights contributed to our energy-neutral workplace and head office.

Further sustainability does however continue: we will convert our current workshop and the new – to build – storage facilities to be completely energy-neutral. This means, amongst other things, we will no longer use fossil fuels such as gas for heating”.

Circularity has always been a crucial part of our working method: we take excellent care of our materials. After every project, all winches, power units and other equipment are inspected and thoroughly maintained. Overhauling and a fresh coat of paint contribute to our materials’ long-term, economic, and reliable usability. The materials we rent out always appear to be brand new and that is noticed and appreciated by our clients. This intensive care pays off. Some of our winches are more than 20 years old and still in perfect working order. A good start, but in the end, we want to be as energy neutral, as sustainable, lean and mean as possible”.

The energy transition brings challenges but also offers the Bezemer Group opportunities to develop the company in new ways and create new services and products. Bezemer: “The future will be focused on further electrification, building our own power banks to reduce emissions to zero per cent over time.”
