Wilma Wastiau

What Wilma Wastiau does

Wilma Wastiau is a family-run industrial architecture studio headquartered in Westerlo, Belgium, specializing in the design of warehouses, logistics campuses, production facilities, manufacturing plants, and corporate headquarters for enterprise clients across Belgium and the Netherlands. The firm operates under two Belgian private limited companies — bvba Wastiau & co architectenbureau (VAT BE 0885.928.516) and Architectenbureau Wil-Ma bvba (VAT BE 0534.765.849) — and serves industrial and logistics customers requiring large-scale, often technically demanding builds.

The studio is organized into four integrated service divisions — Master Planning, Concept Design, Technical Engineering, and Interior Design — delivered under one roof by a multinational team of 20+ architects, engineers, BIM modelers, and interior designers. Its core technology stack centers on Building Information Modeling (BIM), supported by dedicated Chief BIM Modeller, Lead BIM Modeller, and Lead BIM Architect roles, and the firm engineers for compliance with global logistics standards (FM Global, ESFR sprinklers, superflat floors) alongside sustainability measures such as productive roofs, solar panels, prefabrication, and second-life materials.

Revenue is generated through project-based, quote-priced professional services fees with multi-year contract cadence. Distribution is direct enterprise sales — the firm engages industrial companies, logistics operators, and manufacturers on a project-by-project basis, supplemented by referral and portfolio-driven demand (website, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and trade press coverage). Customer concentration spans unrelated verticals including medical devices (Andocor), logistics (Desco, T-Port Logistics, McKesson), chemicals (Ineos, Soprema), manufacturing (Stijlbeton, Blue Oceans, Arco), and currency minting (Royal Dutch Mint), reducing single-segment exposure but tying revenue to large, lumpy enterprise mandates.
