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.

Thank you Toni – 32 years at G+P

At this year’s summer event in Thun, Toni celebrated his last official working day at Grolimund + Partner – in glorious weather, together with the team, on and around Lake Thun. A fitting setting for a special moment: the conclusion of 32 years filled with heart, wisdom and commitment
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.

«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!»

«What I appreciate about G+P is the extremely broad field of activity, which ranges from normal project work to conference participation and international research collaboration. Likewise, I think it's great that the coffee break can be actively used to compare current conditions in the mountains, which creates a welcome balance between work and free time.»

«With the CPX measurement system, we are on the road all over Switzerland measuring the acoustic effect of road surfaces. During these measurements, I discovered many beautiful places throughout Switzerland and was inspired by the different landscapes: sunsets in the canton of Fribourg, summer days on Lake Maggiore or winding drives up unknown mountain passes. The perfect balance to the daily office routine.»

«Noisy industrial plants are often located on the roofs of high buildings. For measurement campaigns, I therefore regularly find myself at lofty heights and can enjoy the panorama from unique locations. The combination of field work (with foresight), the analytical and editorial work in the office and the variety of noise sources and projects make the work in the outdoor noise team at Grolimund+Partner very varied.»

«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.»
