Beentjes GWW: emission-free working is a mindset

08 April 2026

Working entirely electrically; that is the vision of Beentjes Grond-, Weg- en Waterbouw from Uitgeest, North Holland. Beentjes GWW has been successfully promoting this vision for some time now. We spoke about it with Frans Beentjes, director of the Beentjes Bouwgroep and the namesake grandson of the company's founder.

Frans Beentjes Sr. started the paving company Beentjes in Heemskerk in 1960 together with his brothers. Frans' son Henk took over the reins, and in 2013, his son Frans joined the company. Over the years, Beentjes GWW grew into a general contractor in civil engineering. “Our specializations are spatial planning, water management, and bridges. Think of sewerage work, road reconstructions, pumping stations, and all types of bridges,” explains Frans. Beentjes GWW currently has around 55 employees and an extensive fleet of vehicles and machinery, nearly 80% of which consists of electric equipment. The clients mainly come from North and South Holland and Flevoland.
