The BESIX family welcomes a new member! It is with great pleasure that we announce that Van den Berg and Agidens Infra Automation are joining forces and will henceforth operate under a common brand: BESIX Unitec.

Agidens Infra Automation, a market leader in engineering and automation projects in various sectors, has been acquired by BESIX from Agidens International through its subsidiary Van den Berg in September 2021. Their electromechanical expertise and deep understanding of technological processes and maintenance & support fit seamlessly with Van den Berg’s expertise in the construction and maintenance of energy and data network infrastructures. After the takeover, Agidens Infra Automation had to change its name anyway, so this is an ideal opportunity to combine the two companies to achieve a leading position in the infrastructure market. Hence the choice of the name BESIX Unitec: a union of high-tech technologies and techniques.

This joining of forces gives rise to numerous possible new market combinations. It is BESIX Unitec’s ambition to become the technology partner in the infrastructure market, in its home markets of Belgium, the Netherlands and beyond.

The support of the BESIX family offers BESIX Unitec a platform of scale-up in many areas. For years, BESIX has been focusing on complex and integrated projects in an international context. With the growing importance of technological applications, sustainability and circularity, BESIX Unitec with its skills and experience, fits the puzzle within the BESIX Group holding.

We wish Annick Martin, managing director of BESIX Unitec, all the + 500 employees of the company and their management team success in the new organization!
