The organization consists of several operating companies: Staalstraal Brabant (Oosterhout), Straco (Waspik and Heerenveen), Euroblast (Belgium), and JC Straaltechniek (Werkendam/Vlissingen).
With locations in Oosterhout, Heerenveen, and Antwerp, the group has 80,000 m² of production facilities.

Sustainability is a core focus: all locations are equipped with solar panels, and the company is continuously working on further automation and sustainability initiatives.
Optimal performance and structural maintenance of a large-scale PV system in an industrial environment with high levels of contamination.
As a company specializing in the blasting and coating of steel, Steel Protection Group operates in an environment filled with dust, metal particles, and coating residues. This leads to accelerated contamination of solar panels, which negatively impacts their output. Structural cleaning and professional maintenance are therefore essential for achieving sustainability goals.
