ABO-Group Environment adds soil
remediation expert Rimeco to its business pallet
- With Rimeco (Tienen), ABO-Group strengthens its
presence in Flemish Brabant
- Rimeco can rely on ABO-Group's knowledge and
experience
Rimeco, based in Tienen, was founded in 1998 and
has since become a recognised soil remediation expert in Flanders.
The office carries out the various phases of soil investigations:
in the case of land transfer, in the event of contamination, when
remediation is imminent, in the context of soil removal,... and
developed a team of 11 people.
"Soil investigations have become more complex
and extensive in recent years, partly due to PFAS and other
emerging contaminants. ABO-Group wishes to strengthen its position
and, with the acquisition of Rimeco, also ensures a better regional
spread in an area that is less known for ABO-Group," says
CEO Frank De Palmenaer. "In order to serve the
customer well, we opt for local offices, close to the customer and
close to the employee. Furthermore, the acquisition also
strengthens our teams and expands our customer base within the
business. Over the years, Rimeco has built up their own network of
relations and customers, which will now also allow the entities
within the group to fall back on."
The administrators, Linda Moors and Peter
Somers, remain active within Rimeco and will now join ABO-Group in
shaping their growth and ambitions. "In order to grow further, we
made the choice with ABO-Group to enter a next phase," says Peter
Somers, director of Rimeco. "ABO-Group has the economies of scale
and experience to guide Rimeco to the next phase of growth.
In doing so, we will be able to rely on their expertise, which they
built up not only in Belgium, but also in other countries, such as
France and the Netherlands."
This acquisition marks the fourth acquisition
for ABO-Group this year and the second in Belgium, after ABO-Group
took a stake in surveying firm MEET HET last month.
