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

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.

«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.»

«On the pulse of time in times of climate change – this makes the work at G+P both interesting and diverse. In addition, a very motivated team of well-trained specialists who complement each other very well and who bring the current state of knowledge of building physics into practice. The whole thing is rounded off by a really good team spirit and progressive boundary conditions, which is why I feel very comfortable here.»

«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.»

«Working with and for different clients allows me to gain insight into a wide variety of fields of activity. At G+P itself, we work in interdisciplinary teams across the various specialist areas to find solutions. The focus is often on the goal of providing more peace and quiet for the population. I also really appreciate the fact that I can work in several branches and at home, and that the PC-heavy work is always broken up by measurement work outside with the CPX drivers, alone and with office colleagues.»

«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.»
