Moret Industries Group

General information

De Smet Engineers & Contractors (DSEC) is a privately held limited liability company incorporated in Belgium in 1989. It has an established reputation as a general contractor (EPC Contractor), specializing in the agro-industrial field where it is a fully-integrated world class provider of engineering, procurement and construction services.
It brings a compelling business offering that combines excellence in execution, safety, cost containment, experience and reliability with particular care towards energy saving and sustainability.

Eager to attend the growing demand from its client for a larger involvement in project implementation, the De Smet Group who was essentially an equipment supplier created DSEC in 1989 with a view to provide the market with a dedicated organisation including multi disciplinary expert teams that are the key to the successful realisation of turnkey projects.

The new company was joined at that time by a team of sugar experts coming from the well-known Abay Engineering Company, opening therefore the way to work on projects involving Sugar and Sugar Derivatives and Biochemicals from basic engineering to complete factory implementation.

Since then, DSEC has successfully executed more than 50 large-scale projects, ranging from pure management operation to full turnkey contracts. Moreover it has also performed numerous Technical Audits, investment evaluation studies and Front End Engineering Design jobs (FEED).

There are today no more shareholding relations with Desmet Ballestra, DSEC being fully controlled by Moret Industries Group since 2014.
