Extreme weather with a lot of rainfall and damage this month

Many more organizations are hit this month by the extreme weather. Also in the beginning of June we had more extreme weather. A  furniture specialty store was hit two times!


Millions of damage to at a company in Hedel

HEDEL - It takes at least six months for all damage to be repaired at De Groot International in Hedel. A warehouse of 3000 square meters of the company flooded when the roof collapsed due to the torrential showers of Tuesday evening. According to a spokeswoman, the damage is millions of euros.



When the roof collapsed, there were employees inside. "It is far-reaching. I am happy that no one has been injured. At that time, fewer people were inside. Thank God there is only material damage, "says the spokesperson.

The warehouse that has collapsed is an expedition warehouse. 'Then you talk about the steel construction, the upholstery and the coolings. That is about millions of euros, "the spokeswoman foretells.
