What has motivated us for over 20 years

We don't just do anything. We plan, construct, and maintain buildings, roads, bridges, locks, rails, flood barriers, and quay walls to ensure the smooth running of port operations. But that's not all: we monitor and control shipping traffic using state-of-the-art technology and develop innovative ideas to make the port more environmentally friendly.

In this way, we make Hamburg a little greener and better every day – this and much more has been our driving force for over 20 years.
