The challenge

Thorough improvement without operational downtime

HVC's waste collection station in Beverwijk was due for a thorough improvement. The concrete structures had suffered from years of exposure to aggressive substances, mechanical loading and weather influences. The condition of the concrete called for intervention — but the facility had to remain accessible for daily waste processing.

The work had to be carried out in phases to guarantee the continuity of the waste collection station. At the same time, high demands were placed on safety and quality, given the nature of the facility and the aggressive environment in which the concrete operates. Careful planning and close coordination with the client were indispensable.

The process

Three months of work in close consultation with HVC

In consultation with the client HVC, the work was carefully planned and divided into several phases over a period of three months. Each phase was aligned with the operational schedule of the waste collection station, so that daily operations were hindered as little as possible. VTG worked outside the busiest hours and communicated daily on progress.

Thanks to the phased approach, VTG could check quality per phase and adjust where necessary. After each phase, an interim inspection was carried out together with the client. This gave both parties confidence in the process and ensured a smooth completion of each component. After three months the waste collection station was fully improved — within budget and to HVC's complete satisfaction.

The solution

Manual concrete repairs in several phases

VTG carried out an extensive series of manual concrete repairs at the waste collection station. The work included repairing deteriorated concrete, treating reinforcement, applying high-quality repair mortar and finishing surfaces. Each component was treated in accordance with the guidelines of BRL 3201:2017 and the client's specific requirements.

The end result is a future-proof waste collection station that meets the highest requirements for sustainability, safety and operational reliability. The improved facility can be used efficiently for waste processing in the Beverwijk region for years to come, without concerns about the condition of the concrete structures.
