Inspectus

What Inspectus does

Inspectus B.V. is a privately held Dutch independent advisory bureau founded in 2013 and headquartered in Veenendaal, Netherlands, specializing in hazardous material inspections and building condition surveys. The company delivers SC-540 certified asbestos inventory services — legally required in the Netherlands before demolition or renovation of buildings constructed before 1994 — alongside chromium-6 (chroom-6) analysis using Handheld X-ray Fluorescence (HXRF), laboratory asbestos analysis via Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), crawl space inspections, wood-destroying organism assessments, moisture and mold inventories, leak detection via thermography, pest risk inventories (PRI), and lead pipe identification. Its technical differentiator is the ability to combine multiple inspection disciplines in a single site visit, reducing disruption for customers. Supporting services include NEN 2991 risk assessments, project management for asbestos remediation tenders, LAVS national tracking system support, contra-expertise (second opinions), and certified training programs (asbest herkennen, chroom-6 awareness, houtbescherming).

The business operates a sales-led, project-based professional services model with quote-driven pricing determined by building size, material complexity, and scope. Customers include individual homeowners, housing corporations, municipalities, insurers, project developers, and named enterprise accounts such as Rijkswaterstaat (lighthouse asbestos surveys), NS (Dutch Railways), water treatment utilities, and industrial heritage sites (e.g., the former Glasfabriek Schiedam). GTM relies on a national direct-sales footprint with website quote forms, phone/email intake, sector-specific outreach for portfolio accounts, and referral partnerships (e.g., Dekker BV Asbestsanering for remediation handoff, Homekeur-Academy for training). Brand visibility is supported by content marketing (Dutch-language blog, LinkedIn/Facebook), trade show presence (Renovatiebeurs 2022), and a 2021 RTL 4 television feature (Kopen Zonder Kijken).

The company is bootstrapped with no disclosed funding rounds or external investment. The employee count sits in the 11-50 band, with 5+ open vacancies suggesting active scaling. All revenue derives from Dutch operations, and no AI/ML capabilities are present in the disclosed technology stack — field work depends on certified inspectors operating established scientific instrumentation under regulatory certification schemes.
