The existence of the Amsterdamsche Ballast Maatschappij can be attributed to the North Sea canal [Noordzeekanaal]. Its original operations back in 1877 were simplicity itself: empty merchant ships going to sea obtained dune sand as ballast. In later years, the company also applied itself to dredging.
H.F. Boersma set up in business as a contractor in Den Haag from 1899 onwards. In 1917, Boersma founded the company Nederlandse Aannemingsmaatschappij N.V. The Ballast Nedam Group came into being through the amalgamation of the two companies in 1969.
Only the dredging division was taken over by Van Oord. Ballast Nedam, which now offers a wide range of products and services related to construction, still exists (http://www.ballast-nedam.com).
