Van Thuyne invests in a new factory
The company Van Thuyne from Waregem, Belgium, can look back on a long and successful history. Founded in 1880 as a company in the building materials trade, the firm, which is headed today by the owners Tom Eeckhout and his wife, Fien Barra, quickly developed into a successful producer of precast concrete elements, which are held in high esteem not only in Belgium, but also in the Netherlands and France.
More than 60 employees cover a wide range of precast concrete elements, starting with hollow core slabs with a thickness of up to 500 mm, through pre-stressed filigree slabs 1.2 and 2.5 metres (reinforced) wide, up to wall elements, pillars and girders.
The demand for hollow core slabs has increased considerably. We want to use this development for further growth in our company
