Contaminated sites

Contaminated sites endanger the Environmental Engineering. Contaminated sites reduce the value of properties and lead to additional costs for concept designs. We advise landowners and developers on the risks, identify the necessary investigations and remediation options and implement them. We are experienced in the redevelopment of industrial sites, landfills, fuel depots and firing ranges.

Overall planning for the redevelopment of contaminated sites

If a site is contaminated with chemicals such as perfluorinated and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS), chlorinated hydrocarbons (CHCs) or heavy metals and a hazard is identified, it must be remediated in accordance with the Environmental Protection Act and the Contaminated Sites Ordinance (AltlV). Whether you are developing an industrial site or implementing an infrastructure project in which you come across contaminated surface or polluted groundwater: Our interdisciplinary team of experts comprising environmental and civil engineers, geologists and chemists will support you from the initial preliminary investigation through to redevelopment and waste disposal. We know our way around challenging deconstructions, excavation support and de-watering. Our team maintains close contact with the cantonal environmental authorities. Thanks to our many years of experience, we are now one of the leading contaminated sites consultants in Switzerland and are listed in the Canton of Zurich as private inspectors for contaminated sites.
