About us

De Meyer is a family-owned SME in its fourth generation, with more than 85 years of accumulated experience. But we are more than that. We have grown to where we are today by investing smartly in the right machines and, above all, in the right people.

We have 130 colleagues: all in their own way, from their own passions and interests, masters in mechanics. This cross-fertilization of different backgrounds, accumulated expertise and sense of innovation makes De Meyer a reliable partner that our customers can count on, wherever they go, worldwide.

Our culture & values

Our DNA is anchored in the 'De Meyer culture'. From generation to generation, from father to son, and that since 1829. Through the years we have evolved from blacksmith to purebred machine builder, active in 3 markets: Industry, Infra and Offshore.

The first De Meyer blacksmith we find is Ambrosius De Meyer, the “founding father”, who then passed on the torch to successively Josephus De Meyer, Alfons De Meyer, Jozef De Meyer, François De Meyer, Dirk and Frank De Meyer and today to John De Meyer.

The culture of De Meyer has grown and matured over generations. We consider this family anchoring the foundation of our DNA. Similarly, we hold on to some iconic heirlooms such as Alfons' anvil and Jozef De Meyer's front door.

Working together, helping each other, caring for each other and being proud of our achievements is the norm for us.

.01

Authenticity

We deal with each other openly, honestly and reliably. We say what we do and do what we say. We embrace the individuality of each employee; diversity is a strength. By being authentic, we cultivate trust and credibility.

.02

Constructivity

We are constructive and value constructive feedback because it leads to growth and positivity. As Masters in Mechanics, we combine our passion for engineering and broad expertise with a critically constructive approach, resulting in quality and unique creations.

.03

Creativity

Creativity feeds innovation and originality, which ensures evolution and impact. Our creative mindset in thinking and doing is the engine for designing and building unique realizations for industry, infra and offshore. We stimulate creative freedom and encourage lifelong learning so that our employees can grow.

.04

Ownership

We, De Meyers, feel 100% responsible for our job. Everyone must complete their task correctly, dedication & attention to detail are crucial in this regard. We realize that every job contributes to the bigger picture of the company. Therefore, we deliver only quality. Ownership creates mutual trust.
