What Hoogeboom does

Hoogeboom is a fourth-generation, family-owned civil engineering and circular construction services company headquartered in Raalte, Netherlands. Founded in 1935 by Gerhard Hoogeboom as an agricultural mechanization business, the company has evolved into an integrated contractor operating across demolition, environmental remediation, infrastructure construction, recycling, building materials supply, container rental, and waste facility management. With approximately 80 skilled workers distributed across four locations in Eastern Netherlands (Raalte, Zwolle, Apeldoorn, and Enschede), Hoogeboom serves a dual customer base of municipal governments and commercial enterprises including logistics, retail, automotive retail, and healthcare operators.

The company's service portfolio is anchored in a closed-loop circular economy model. Demolition and infrastructure projects feed material streams into four in-house recycling facilities, where recovered concrete rubble, wood, metals, and aggregates are processed for resale or reuse in subsequent projects. Proprietary capabilities include GPS-controlled precision earthmoving, a Circular Infiltration System that repurposes demolished aggregate for sustainable rainwater management, and careful dismantling processes that recover steel structures, roofing, and wall panels for reuse. In July 2024, Hoogeboom was awarded the first SVMS007 circular demolition project certificate in the Netherlands by Normec Certification, verifying 96% material reuse on the Agnietencollege project; a separate Sportcomplex Tijenraan project achieved 99% reuse. Hoogeboom is also a shareholder in Circulair Mineraal, a cooperative that remanufactures concrete rubble into high-quality filler, concrete sand, and aggregate.

Hoogeboom generates revenue through four primary streams: project-based construction and demolition services contracted via municipal tenders and direct B2B relationships; sales of primary and secondary building materials (concrete, sand, gravel, soil, recycled aggregate) through both direct channels and an e-commerce platform; container rental for construction and demolition waste in 3–12 m³ sizes; and processing/recycling fees at its four waste facilities. Pricing follows a transactional unit model — concrete starts at €147 per m³, building materials range €0.40–€8.90 per 100kg, and waste containers run €205–€930 per unit depending on type and size. Legal operations are distributed across four regional B.V. entities (Hoogeboom Raalte B.V., Hoogeboom Zwolle B.V., Hoogeboom Apeldoorn B.V., and Hoogeboom Enschede B.V.), entirely under family ownership with no disclosed external institutional investment.
