Geoffroy Bekkers created the “Construction Durable” (Sustainable Construction) department at BESIX. He has been training in eco-construction since 2008 (EBP adviser, passive construction, thermal bridge and sustainable energy management in buildings). His approach is straightforward: be practical and effective. Construction Durable’s main ideas and concepts only have value when applied via concrete actions.
His objective is to provide customers with informed advice (decision-making aids, technical and financial advice and on-site technical support), and to develop quality know-how at BESIX.
