RCF Christine

STRABAG Belgium delivered a new residential care centre in Ekeren.

For RCF Christine, STRABAG Belgium was responsible for the closed structural works and the full finishing of parcel 1. In addition, we coordinated all remaining parcels, from 2 to 12 – a crucial role in ensuring a smooth and high‑quality construction process.

Thanks to our integrated approach, meticulous project planning and close collaboration between all partners, a wide range of specialist contractors were able to work simultaneously. This phased yet perfectly synchronised execution kept the project firmly on track, both in terms of schedule and quality.

The other parcels included, among others:

  • Parcel 2: installation of lifts
  • Parcel 3: electrical works
  • Parcel 4: HVAC installations
  • Parcel 5: sanitary installations and fire protection
  • Parcel 6: industrial kitchen installation
  • Parcel 7: painting works and wall finishes
  • Parcel 8: flexible floor coverings
  • Parcel 9: fixed furniture
  • Parcel 10: loose furniture
  • Parcel 11: landscaping works
  • Parcel 12: curtains

The new care centre covers 12,698 m² and includes 101 modern rooms, spacious day areas, a bright cafeteria and an underground car park — a forward‑looking building where space, comfort and care quality take centre stage.

With our experience in complex construction projects and our thoughtful project management, we delivered a future‑proof residential care centre where comfort, safety and quality are paramount.
