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.

«The highly specialized expertise within G+P enabled me to train in-house as an acoustician. Today, I am happy to pass on this knowledge to new employees. I experience a great openness and willingness to help each other within the team and between the specialist teams. In this way, everyone contributes to maintaining and further developing G+P's high level of professional competence.»

«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).»

«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.»
