Identifying Heat, Creating Impact

Identifying Heat, Creating Impact

The current heatwave makes one thing clear: heat is not an abstract issue for the future, but already a tangible challenge for municipalities, cities and schools. Sealed surfaces in particular become heat hotspots. G+P makes this exposure visible and supports impact oriented climate adaptation measures.

Tracking road traffic noise

Two low noise pavement mixtures on the same road, but which one performs better in the long term? In the Canton of Solothurn, G+P’s Pavement Acoustics team is supporting a test section with a comprehensive analysis programme. Initial findings show that anyone aiming to make the right decisions must look far beyond standard measurements.
Cool Pavements, Local Stone

Cool Pavements, Local Stone

Switzerland is getting hotter, especially in urban areas. We are currently completing a research project that shows: cool asphalt surfaces can be achieved using locally available Swiss aggregates while still meeting requirements for safety, durability, noise and cost effectiveness.

Grolimund + Partner creates added value in all areas of its offering.

We are leaders in our specialist areas of outdoor noise, road surface acoustics, building physics, software and research & development. We provide high-quality services and develop solutions that benefit people and the environment.

One year of communicating values

One year of communicating values

In January 2024, as "The New Boss", I explained in a video statement what is important to us and to me at G+P. After almost a year as the new CEO, it's time for a little look back. Our values take centre stage. Values are a key success factor, especially for SMEs like us.

«At G+P, I appreciate the good teamwork. What motivates me in working on the projects is that we contribute to a more comfortable use of the buildings. Comfort is related to global warming (summer heat insulation) and the ever-increasing density and its noise development in the building itself (sound insulation and room acoustics).»

«I find it exciting and enriching to exchange ideas across disciplines in the G+P team. Everyone contributes their own experience and expertise, whether it's during a project meeting, a coffee break or an after-work beer. We always come up with creative and goal-oriented solutions for our customers, even for particularly challenging problems.»

«What I appreciate most about G+P is the wide range of building physics topics that we are able to deal with on a daily basis as part of an outstanding team. It is a personal concern of mine to support and accompany our customers every day on their way to greater energy efficiency and sustainability. In this way, I can make a personal contribution to a ‘greener’ world of tomorrow, both for the general public and for my two small children, for whom I have plenty of time thanks to my ‘daddy day’ and 80% workload.»

«There are good reasons why I have been working at G+P since 1996: I have always been able to familiarize myself with new areas, receive further training and help build innovative solutions. During this time, my children were born and grew up – the flexibility of G+P in terms of workload and working hours was and is invaluable. I love the working atmosphere, where you can bring in and implement your own ideas, even for new work processes.»

«Every new order is an exciting challenge. I enjoy satisfying our customers' needs with our high quality standards. Regardless of whether it is a short consultation on site or a large project with complex measurements and modeling - even with more than 15 years of experience in acoustics, no project is the same and the motivation is constantly high!»

«I have been at G+P for just over a year as a project leader in research and development. I have learned a lot about road acoustics and their measurement in the past year, as G+P is a pioneer in this field in Switzerland. At the same time, there is always room to bring my skills and experience to the table, while developing new ones.»
