Damen takes the first step towards a more sustainable supply chain with Eevery

We’re proud to share that Damen Shiprepair has launched a sustainability pilot together with Eevery. In this pilot, we’re helping Damen to further improve the sustainability of their supply chain. It’s a powerful example of how a major player can actively support its suppliers in transitioning towards more sustainable business practices. In the latest episode of the PIM Noord-Holland podcast, Wouter Veldhuijzen (Damen) and Michiel Slinkert (Eevery) explain how this partnership came to life.

Damen deliberately chose to partner with Eevery, not just because of our hands-on approach, but also because we provide practical tools and clear, personal guidance for the small and medium-sized businesses in their supply chain. With one-on-one support, actionable improvement suggestions, and tools like our CO₂ calculator, we make sustainability tangible and achievable, especially for entrepreneurs who often lack the time, resources or expertise to tackle it alone.

In the episode, Wouter and Michiel also discuss what drives both parties and why now is the ideal time to invest in a future-proof supply chain.

Why sustainability

Lead the Change: How GWS de Schoonmaker proves that sustainability starts with people

Behind every clean and safe space is someone doing the hard work to make it happen. In the cleaning industry, these people often go unnoticed, yet they’re essential. However, the sector faces significant challenges: high workloads, tight margins, and limited job security make it difficult to truly focus on the people behind the work. Fortunately, more companies are opting for a different approach. GWS de Schoonmaker is a strong example. Based in Rosmalen, Gaby Westelaken and his brother have spent over 40 years building a business where work satisfaction, trust, and sustainability are the top priorities. Their story proves: when you take care of people, you create a strong future.

The positive impact of cleaning on sustainability: appreciation for the unseen power

Cleaning is often viewed as a practical, necessary task with minimal impact on sustainability. However, this service plays a crucial role not only in the appearance of a building, but also in the well-being of the people who work there every day, as well as its broader impact on the environment. Their work is sometimes unnoticed, but cleaners are essential for a healthy, safe and sustainable work environment. In this blog, we put them in the spotlight and highlight their significant contribution to the social, governance, and environmental aspects of sustainability (ESG).

Lead the Change: How Solinatra is replacing plastic for good

The world has a plastic problem. It pollutes our rivers, oceans, and is now even found inside our bodies. At current rates, plastic in the ocean could outweigh fish by 2050. For Robert de Jong, CEO of Solinatra, that future is avoidable. In 2018, he decided to take a different path: not bioplastic, but truly natural material. Compostable, safe, and free from harmful residues. Solinatra developed a unique material that replaces plastic and completely disappears. Not based on bold claims, but backed by scientific proof.
