We live in exciting times. It is clear by now that the world is changing. The real estate cycle creaks and squeaks and needs brave companies that dare to build a new foundation together. After all, a sustainable future is the only future. The next 10 years will be crucial. It will take knowledge, perseverance and creativity. JAJO takes responsibility and is ready to lay the new foundation. One that truly moves the world and the real estate industry forward.
Circular business is better. We want to show that by doing it. With conviction and guts, taking risks and with passion. Our goal is to supply building materials that contribute to a circular economy. We don’t demolish, we harvest. For example, our subsidiary New Horizon Material Balance supplies the largest range of building materials from urban mining in the world. With a demonstrably lower environmental impact and all regular qualifications. To this end, they initiate new collaborations, technological innovations, system changes and prove that it can be done.

We dismantle buildings with the goal of harvesting as many materials as possible for reuse. After all, in our eyes, every building is a donor building. This pays off even in times of scarcity, transportation problems and skyrocketing prices. By helping organizations achieve their circular ambitions, the picture is ever more complete. Certified building materials such as concrete, brick, bitumen, plaster and aluminum are given new life in another building. The emphasis is more than ever before on providing building materials from urban mining.
But we don’t only harvest in the Netherlands. In the Caribbean, too, we do as much as possible to recycle materials. When buildings on Bonaire and Curaçao are demolished, as much concrete as possible is reused. Our Windward subsidiaries strive to reuse as much of the demolished concrete as possible as construction concrete. And on Aruba, significant investments have been made in asphalt recycling facilities in recent years.
For all our real estate harvesting companies, we state “We demolish with a net-zero mission and harvest value.”
