The Board of Directors, led by Patrick Mathieu, is pleased to announce that Eduard van der Meer has been appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO), from 1 April 2025. Eduard has been serving as interim CEO since January 1, 2025, and will now continue to lead Consolis in a permanent capacity.

With a strong board and leadership team now in place, Consolis is well positioned for its next phase of development.

New experienced interim CFO with deep industry knowledge

Joining Eduard in leading Consolis, Denis Van Roey steps in as interim CFO.

A strong foundation for the next phase

Following a successful refinancing of Consolis Group in November 2024, which significantly reduced the company’s debt, the newly structured Board of Directors brings together renowned executives from the construction industry and experienced directors in the governance of industrial companies. This strong governance foundation supports the group’s continued development and strategic direction.

“The board will support the new leadership in implementing a growth strategy that capitalizes on Consolis’ widely recognized technology and recent sustainability innovations, including the Green Spine Line^®, a portfolio of low-carbon precast products.,” says Patrick Mathieu.

“With these appointments, Consolis now has a strong and well-balanced board and leadership team in place to execute the company’s strategic roadmap for growth as the construction market evolves. Our focus remains on delivering high-quality, sustainable precast solutions and ensuring that our subsidiaries are well-positioned to meet growing local industry needs,” he adds.
