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.»

«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.»

«G+P allows me to work in an area where I can influence the achievement of kilma targets on a small scale. By planning energy-optimized buildings, we can actively influence the CO2 footprint. The daily work with the great team of G+P is a pleasure. In addition, I was able to meet my wonderful wife at G+P.»

«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).»

«Noise pollution reduces the quality of life of those who suffer from it. My goal is to reduce them as much as possible – G+P provides me with the means to do this. Street noise and shooting noise - I have been able to develop in these areas thanks to the skills acquired in a dynamic, friendly and stimulating working environment.»

«At G+P, I can apply my expertise to a huge variety of projects, from architectural competitions to interior design - whether it's an assessment of the volumetrics or the proportion of glass in a giant superstructure or choosing the right curtain fabric for the acoustics in a living room. I find the exchange with customers and other construction experts enriching and instructive. I particularly appreciate the friendly atmosphere at G+P, the uncomplicated exchange and flexible organization.»
