Smink infra

What Smink infra does

Smink infra is a Dutch civil engineering and infrastructure construction company headquartered in Nijkerk (Galvanistraat 31, 3861 NJ), founded in 1955 by Wim Smink and operating as a family-owned private limited (B.V.). Its core services cover site preparation, residential and commercial development, landscape engineering, reconstruction, hydraulic engineering, environmental remediation, ice control, sewerage, and paving. Clients are concentrated within an approximate 40 km radius around Nijkerk and span more than ten municipalities — including Nijkerk, Ede, Ermelo, Amersfoort, Soest, Scherpenzeel, Bunschoten, Leusden, Apeldoorn, Urk, and Hilversum — alongside private developers and contractors such as BPD, Van Wijnen, Heijmans, Koopmans/TBI, and Bakker Logistiek. The business is led by Algemeen directeur Fred-Jan Moll and Directeur Michel Smink, with an eight-member board.

Operationally, Smink infra deploys 3D GPS-controlled earthmoving machinery and electric compaction equipment to deliver precision grading, earthworks, and paving. In 2025 the company achieved Level 5 — the highest tier — of the CO2 Performance Ladder, a certification that materially benefits its positioning for sustainability-weighted Dutch public tenders. Standalone headcount stood at roughly 130 in 2020; the wider Smink group — comprising sister entities Zandink Zandhandel, Eeltink Zandwinning, Hartog Containers, Smink Vastgoed, and Smink Machines — totals approximately 200 employees across three locations, providing vertical integration across sand supply, extraction, container logistics, real estate, and equipment.

The business model is project-based and tender-driven: revenue is generated through construction contracts won via Dutch public procurement processes and through direct engagement with private developers and contractors, with no standard pricing disclosed. Within the group, sister-company integration reduces exposure to third-party sand, logistics, and equipment suppliers and supports margin reliability on complex earthworks and paving programs such as the Zeeheldenwijk Urk engagement (370,000 m³ of sand movement and 7 km of sewer) — the largest project in company history.
