In late 2013 a group of sixteen painters of Van der Ende were certified for working on high voltage pylons. That certification was a first step towards returning to conservation of high voltage pylons. In the 1990s Van der Ende carried out various such projects.

Because our focus is on growth in (Petro) chemistry we at the time decided to end our activities in that sector. Because of the changes in the market and the fact that much maintenance is required in the next years, we also wish to become an important player in the energy world. With sixteen certified and most of all motivated pylon painters, we again are definitely an interesting party for line manager Tennet.
