Thermal specialist Callens conquers Walloon territory with a facility in Liège
01 April 2021
With the new facility in Liège, the West Flemish Callens now has its very own base in Wallonia, the fourth one after our headquarters in Waregem and our branches in Lochristi, Geel and Arnhem (the Netherlands). “This is another example of how we follow through on our promise of customer proximity, with staff within easy reach at every level,” says CEO Windy Moerman.
Callens team expands accordingly
In Liège, a completely new and complementary team of Callens staff is at the ready to assist clients from the sales process, during the design stage through to installation and with maintenance and intervention long after the system is in place. In fact, Callens insists on using its own technical experts to provide its clients with care-free industrial heating and ventilation systems with inter alia steam and thermal oil boilers and air-handling systems for process ventilation.
The team liaises closely with the Waregem home base and can bank on the support services there for a smooth launch and swift project delivery.
After 55 years, we know our trade and the sectors we serve as no other, but we were short of feelers in Wallonia.
Windy Moerman
CEO Callens Group
Windy Moerman has been Co-CEO of the Callens Group, together with Annick Callens, since 2003. He grew with the company from within: in the early years he, like Annick, worked his way up through every department to acquaint himself with industrial processes and customer needs.
These days, he translates that broad experience into a distinctly strategic and operational role. Under the impetus of Windy and Annick, Callens grew into Belgium’s market leader. Presently, they are purposefully building on an international future for the Callens Group, with steps into the Netherlands and France for starters.
Windy Moerman believes in entrepreneurship with strong, forward-looking partners. He sees the energy transition as a unique opportunity to guide customers to sustainable, future-proof solutions.
Following an intensive search, Callens found experienced people in the region who can fulfil that role. “They will foster personal relations in Wallonia and ensure that every client can count on an impeccable and friendly service,” Moerman concludes.
