Materiality assessment

During 2021, we commissioned an independent third party to update our materiality analysis to ensure that our stewardship continues to focus on these topics which our internal and external stakeholders deem to be materially significant.

Understanding our impact

The purpose of the materiality assessment is to guide a focused approach to sustainability by balancing expectations of different stakeholders with our internal business aspirations and context. This enables us to identify which sustainability topics are most relevant in relation to our business.

Case highlights

Marker Wadden

The project transformed the ecologically impoverished Markermeer lake into a dynamic area rich in animal and plant life, through the creation of nature islands using sand, clay and fine sediment. Building with Nature techniques play a key role in the project.

Calling a halt to coastal erosion

Boskalis, as one of the partners in the EcoShape consortium, has embarked on a five-year Building with Nature project to halt coastal erosion in Central Java, Indonesia. Through a unique integration of mangrove restoration, small-scale engineering and sustainable land use the project is expected to turn the tide.

Boskalis Beach Clean-ups

Keeping the oceans and beaches clean is a responsibility that Boskalis is committed to. The main sponsorship since 2013 of the Boskalis Beach Cleanup Tour of the North Sea Foundation in the Netherlands is a logical consequence of this. Around the world Boskalis subsidiaries and project teams regularly organize spontaneous beach cleanups together with clients and local communities.
