In 1977 ir. Paul Van Looy began his professional career as a logistics engineering consultant. Very soon architects, civil-, electrical- and mechanical engineers joined him. From then onwards, “Van Looy Group” operated as a multidisciplinary engineering company focusing on the design and construction of complex logistics facilities and distribution centers. Over the years, other types of projects were added such as manufacturing buildings, laboratories and even datacenters. This format was the foundation for a journey that successfully delivered numerous projects for many companies – multinational, medium and small sized – in different industries and sectors. Recently and with the mission to focus on the design and construction of laboratory type projects, Exilab was founded as a daughter company of “Van Looy Group” . Exilab delivers superior project solutions to its customers in this growing and highly specialized market segment.
