Antwerp – Minister Jo Brouns visited a soil remediation site operated by Verhoeve Belgium on Sint-Jansplein in Antwerp North, where VLABOTEX is addressing historical solvent contamination in a complex urban environment.

Thanks to a unique partnership model between the industry, the government, and the contractor, contaminated sites are being remediated and prepared for a sustainable future. Verhoeve has been carrying out remediation projects on behalf of Vlabotex for many years, thereby contributing to the redevelopment of various former laundry facilities.
