What ROELOFS BEHEER BV does

Roelofs Beheer BV (operating as Roelofs Groep) is a privately held Dutch civil engineering and infrastructure company founded in 1960 and headquartered in Den Ham, Netherlands, with 251–500 employees and regional offices in Sneek and Veenendaal. The firm delivers integrated infrastructure services across seven expertise areas — Mobility; Circularity, Nature and Environment; Water and Sewerage; Area Development; Paving and Technology; Management and Maintenance; and Raw Materials — covering the full project lifecycle from advisory and design through construction execution and long-term maintenance. Its technical platform combines an in-house asphalt plant, sand extraction pits in Northern/Eastern Netherlands and Germany, the proprietary Lynpave technology for 100% recycled asphalt, an in-house Carbon Calculation Tool for sewerage emissions, and the Roelofs Designlab for 3D/VR stakeholder visualization. Drone-based traffic research is offered through a partnership with Belgian firm Dronematrix.

Roelofs' customers are predominantly Dutch public-sector entities (municipalities, provincial authorities, and water boards/waterschappen), supplemented by industrial, contractor/developer, educational, healthcare, and agricultural-sector clients. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales via competitive public tendering (UAV-gc frameworks), Bouwteam (integrated project team) collaborations, and direct contract awards, with no third-party resellers. Named flagship engagements include the €2.8M Bûtenfjild electric boat route for Provincie Fryslân, the 90% circular milieupark for Gemeente Rotterdam, the Engbertsdijksvenen 618-hectare Natura 2000 hydrological restoration (partly EU LIFE-funded), and the upgrade of 100 provincial bus stops for Provincie Groningen.

Revenue is generated through four streams: engineering and consultancy services, construction and civil-works execution, asphalt production and supply, and construction-sand extraction. Pricing is entirely project-based quote-driven under public procurement; no published pricing exists. The firm has stated a 2030 climate-neutrality goal and is investing in circular construction, biobased asphalt (lignin, via Avantium), and citizen-participation visualization to align with Dutch Omgevingswet and EU sustainability mandates. Ownership structure is not publicly disclosed; Gerard Hoiting serves as algemeen directeur and no external investors or public-listing evidence appears in the source data.
