What Altrad Benelux NV/SA does

Altrad Benelux NV/SA is a Belgian private limited company headquartered in Boortmeerbeek, Belgium, operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of ALTRAD S.A., a French-based diversified conglomerate founded in 1985 with presence in more than 100 countries. The company serves as the Benelux regional arm for the ALTRAD Group's scaffolding and construction equipment portfolio, offering modular scaffolding systems (CONTUR, FUTURO, QUADRO, SL, ALU MULTI), temporary roofing (Altrad-Dessa), bridging structures, Ranger stairs, and a retail range including wheelbarrows, concrete mixers, props, and Belle compaction/mixing equipment. Its product technology centers on proprietary rosette connection scaffolding architecture with load classes of 600 kg/m² (2.5m sections) and 450 kg/m² (3m sections), certified to European safety standards EN 12810 and EN 12811.

The company operates a dual-channel business model. The retail division runs an e-commerce storefront (retail.altrad-benelux.be) selling professional and DIY construction equipment directly to SMB and individual buyers in Dutch and French. The scaffolding division (steigers.altrad-benelux.be) provides both sales and rental of modular systems, temporary roofs, and bridging, supported by technical consultation including 2D/3D design, risk assessment, site visits, and worker training programs subsidized through Cevora. Revenue is generated through one-time product sales, equipment rental (managed services), and professional services including consulting and training. Territory-based regional account managers cover Wallonia/Brussels/Luxembourg, Antwerp/Limburg, and East/West Flanders.

Altrad Benelux serves three primary customer segments: construction industry professionals (the primary vertical, including contractors, masons, and facade/renovation/roofing specialists), public authorities requiring equipment for public infrastructure projects, and event organizers needing temporary structures. The company employs 14 people and operates under multiple sub-brands including Plettac Steigers, ALTRAD-Dessa, Securifran, Mefran, Belle, and Lescha. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.
