What Façadis does

Façadis Gevelbouw is a Dutch facade construction specialist that engineers, produces, and installs aluminium, steel, and glass facade systems for new-build and renovation projects across the Netherlands. Founded in 1966 as Staalbouw Oldenzaal and later rebranded to Façadis, the company operates from its headquarters and production facility in Oldenzaal (Zutphenstraat 10, 7575 EJ) and is part of the StaalFin Groep (SFG) holding alongside sister company Alverre Grenzeloos in Glas, which adds structural glazing capabilities. Under DGA (CEO) Bert Leusenkamp since 1992, the company has developed into a nationally operating specialist serving as a "ketenpartner" (chain partner) to construction firms, project developers, and building owners, and self-describes as a Top 3 facade builder in Oost-Nederland.

The company's core product portfolio spans aluminium curtain walls (vliesgevels), steel curtain walls, windows, doors, frames (kozijnen), and integrated glass technology, drawing on system profiles from Schücco, Kawneer (Alcoa), Jansen, and Stabaluxoffered as standard systems or project-specific custom profiles. Technical operations include in-house BIM engineering using Autodesk Revit and AutoCAD with LOD-level modeling, high prefabrication with pre-installed glazing under controlled factory conditions, certified on-site mounting, and an innovative "steigerloze kozijnvervanging" (scaffold-free window replacement) renovation method. Façadis holds a deep certification stack including VMRG-Keurmerk, KOMO attest with product certificate for BRL 2701 (first VMRG member to achieve this, February 2023), VCA*, SCL, AluEco, EN 16034 fire/smoke-door certification, EN 14351-1 escape/panic door certification, and ISO 14001.

Façadis generates revenue through project-based contracts on a tender/quote basis, delivering the full facade lifecycle from advisory, budgeting, and engineering through production and mounting to long-term service and maintenance (including 25-year maintenance plans). The go-to-market is exclusively direct B2B sales with no retail, e-commerce, or self-serve channels, and pricing is project-specific and not publicly disclosed. The customer base spans education, healthcare, government, infrastructure, retail, logistics, and manufacturing, with notable projects including Amsterdam UMC (ADORE), Saxion Hogeschool, Rijksuniversiteit Groningen (Feringa Building), Volvo Harrie Arendsen, Provinciehuis Haarlem, and the award-winning LocHal Tilburg. The company is privately held under family ownership with no external institutional investment, and has positioned itself as a sustainability leader through structural use of Low Carbon aluminium (37-70% CO2 reduction) since 2025 and Low Carbon Glass integration.
