Veldeman

Belgian designer and producer of temporary infrastructures

Headquartered in Bree, Belgium and founded in 1950, Veldeman (“the Company”) is a leading designer and producer of temporary structures which are rented out and sold to a multitude of markets globally. The Company is well-known for its innovative capabilities and turn-key solutions offering, providing a broad range of additional services such as electricity, climate-control, ventilation, VIP spaces and decoration. Its ability to offer high levels of customisation, coupled with its broad product and service offering, allows Veldeman to differentiate itself from its main competitors.

The Company’s 120 full-time employees are complemented by an extensive network of subcontractors who, together, serve customers across 60 locations out of its sites in Belgium, the US and Chile. Production however is restricted to the Company’s headquarters.

IK Partners acquired its stake from the management team in April 2023 who will be reinvesting.
