Custom Cutter Dredgers

Power and Innovation

Discover the power and reliability of the cutter suction dredgers from DE Klop / De Hollandsche IJssel. With over 550 stationary dredgers to their name, including more than 220 cutter suction dredgers, a well-established name in the dredging industry. Available in sizes ranging from 10 to 20 inches, these machines offer not only robustness but also excellent performance.

A standout addition is DE Klop’s Cygnus series. Named after the swan, this cutter suction dredger features an elegant design and is fully emission-free. No hydraulic fluids or other pollutants on board this innovative electric dredger!

What all cutter suction dredgers have in common is an outstanding price-quality ratio. Buyers receive personal guidance to ensure they make the perfect choice. The custom range offers models with power outputs from 200 to 1,600 horsepower, all built with standard dredging components such as double-walled dredge pumps and cutter heads.

Our dredgers are designed with a sturdy construction and feature efficient dredge pumps, powered by modern diesel engines with low fuel consumption and minimal NOX emissions. This results in the lowest possible costs per cubic meter of dredged material, with minimal downtime for maintenance and the replacement of wear parts.

Note for potential buyers: since the launch of the self-propelling 10″ and 12″ cutter suction dredgers, sales of the standard CSD-250 and CSD-300 have dropped to zero. The future of dredging is here!
