Our yard in Vlaardingen is also known as the “dismantling yard.” This site is specifically equipped for dismantling large structures, such as offshore constructions, shipwrecks, oil and gas platforms, and wind turbines.

Every now and then, a particularly remarkable object arrives at our yard. Recently, a storage tower was transported to our dismantling yard for processing. Due to its size and weight, road transport was not an option—it was shipped by the Matador 2, a large floating sheerleg crane.
The storage tower measured 9.75 metres in length, 9.7 metres in width, and 25.5 metres in height. It weighed an impressive 170,000 kilograms. Seeing this towering structure at our yard was truly a sight to behold. But not for long—the tower was swiftly dismantled into secondary raw materials and shipped to various smelters for further processing.
