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.

«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.»

«I have been with G+P AG for over 20 years. I appreciate the good cooperation and the lively exchange of information in the team. I can contribute my extensive practical construction knowledge and experience to the team, on the construction sites, when problems arise or in the event of construction damage. The knowledge gained from construction damage is passed on as an ongoing learning process within the team. As of October 2022, I will be partially retired and will continue to work at G+P AG with a workload of 40%. I spend a lot of time in the mountains (climbing, ski touring) as compensation.»

«At G+P, I appreciate the broad and exciting field of activity at the interface between outdoor noise and software development. Thanks to further training supported by G+P, I can specifically take on new challenges in GIS and data modeling. In addition, the flexible working hours model allows a compatibility with the family.»

«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.»

«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.»
