Discover the inspiring tale of environmental ingenuity in our “Throwback Thursday” feature, where we revisit the origins of our sustainable solution to dampness. Launched in 1997 and highlighted in The Times, now the Schrijver System has serviced over 30,000 homes.[/caption]
In 1997, a couple faced a challenge familiar to many homeowners: the pervasive problem of dampness. Seeking a lasting solution, they turned to the Schrijver System marking a pivotal moment in home maintenance.
Amongst the trailblazers of ’97 was our damp-proofing system. It began with a couple’s determination to find a permanent fix for their damp home, leading to the adaptation of a method from the Netherlands that would soon spread across the region.
Today, after more than two decades, the Schrijver System has been embraced by over 30,000 households. Its success is reflected not just in the numbers, but in the sustained satisfaction of homeowners who have witnessed its reliability and effectiveness. Our commitment to eco-friendly solutions has only grown stronger, driven by the positive feedback from homeowners.
The journey from 1997 to 2024 shows that environmentally friendly solutions don’t just protect our homes; they protect our planet. Our commitment to eco-friendly solutions has only grown stronger, driven by the positive feedback from homeowners.
For a deeper understanding of where it all began, we encourage you to read the original 1997 article from The Times, “Couple go Dutch to rid their home of dampness,” which details the humble beginnings of our system.
