Knoop Baggerwerken was born. From the outset, this sector has been a speciality for the gentlemen. It constantly presented opportunities to come up with new, appropriate and, above all, creative solutions. Solutions to problems in and around the water.    <\/p>\n<\/div>\t\n      \t          \n        <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n      \n            <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_pointer\">\n        <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_pointer_inside\"><\/div>\n      <\/div>\n            \n      <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_pointer_spacer\"><\/div>\n      \n    <\/div>\n  \n    <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_icon\">\n      <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_icon_line_offset\">\n      \t<div class=\"ue_timeline_item_icon_line_offset_mask ue_timeline_item_line_icon_holder\">\n          <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_line_floating_icon-offset ue_timeline_floating_icon\"><i class='fas fa-rocket'><\/i><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_icon_holder\">\n                                      <\/div>\n      \n      <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_icon_line\">\n      \t<div class=\"ue_timeline_item_icon_line_mask ue_timeline_item_line_icon_holder\">\n          <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_line_floating_icon ue_timeline_floating_icon\"><i class='fas fa-rocket'><\/i><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      \n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_spacer\">\n            <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_img_wrapper\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"uet_opposite_img\" src=\"https:\/\/knoopbv.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Watermaster3.jpg\" alt=\"Natuurherstel en waterbouw - Watermaster werkzaam in watergang\" title=\"Watermaster3\">\n              <\/div>\n        \t<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ue_timeline_item elementor-repeater-item-15e92e2 \" id=\"uc_unlimited_timeline_elementor_0c6370f_item2\">\n    <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_content\">\n      \n      <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_content_main\">\n        \n                \n        <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_content_inside\">\n                <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_title\" >2001<\/div>                <div class=\"ue_timeline_item_text\"><p>A <em>switch<\/em> was made from maintenance dredging to nature restoration projects.
