Our origins and early years

DÉGRA is a family business, founded in 1977 by Jan-Piet and Jannie de Graaf. Initially, the main focus was on custom dredging, including suction dredgers, ditch machines, and hydraulic systems.

All in all, we enjoy that we still remain the family company we were before. We continue to uphold the values and traditions that have defined us since the beginning.
