Our global logistics and knowledge of products and customer applications make us a leading, specialized company in our markets.

Digitalization and Sustainability 

The digitalization of our services is an important development within Van Leeuwen. What we are offering our customers in this respect is explained in this edition. Van Leeuwen also has strong ambitions for sustainability for the coming years. Our solar panel project in Zwijndrecht, the Netherlands, is a good example: an installation of 9,100 solar panels on the roof of our warehouse was recently officially put into operation by former Prime Minister of the Netherlands, Professor Jan Peter Balkenende. We will tell you more about this in this VL Connect.

In addition, we take you along in the world of the Civil Engineering & Construction market segment and you can also read about topics such as the anniversary celebrations of our Van Leeuwen Belgium and Heléns companies.
