Jan De Nul Group states it is the first dredging company to carry out 100% sustainable beach replenishments. Moreover, this world first has taken place at the Belgian coast. From 1 st February, Jan De Nul was scheduled to deposit about 500,000 m~3 of sand on the beach of Raversijde by order of the Agency for Maritime Services and Coast (MDK) of the Flemish Government. The equipment that Jan De Nul used for these dredging and earthmoving works meets the strictest sustainability standards. The ambitious targets that Jan De Nul Group is achieving are thanks to a sustainable course that the dredging company has been following for some time. During mid 2019 Jan De Nul Group contractually committed to reducing its annual CO~2 emissions by 15% during the maintenance dredging works in the coastal marina of Nieuwpoort, also commissioned by the MDK Agency. Never before has a dredging company achieved a CO~2 emission reduction of this magnitude in a commercial application on a project. |
