Our shared focus on operational excellence and people is driven by our united purpose to create sustainable solutions for a better world.

BESIX closed out several remarkable projects during the year such as the energy self-sufficient Sluishuis residential development in the Netherlands – also the recipient of a prestigious MIPIM award this year, and the luxurious Royal Atlantis in Dubai. Several extraordinary projects advanced towards completion including Dubai’s Waste-to-Energy facility and the monumental Grand Egyptian Museum. One of the largest museum’s of its kind, the project exemplifies BESIX’s unwavering commitment to safety. The project celebrated 20 million construction hours without any lost time injuries.
