Environmental compliance today, creating a sustainable tomorrow.

Wastewater is a pressing issue as population is growing while old and limited infrastructure results in increasing pollution incidents.

Fresh water is also a concern as there is an increasing demand from growing demographics and industrial use. At the same time, supply is challenged by ageing infrastructure and climate issues.

Pollution continues to be a major challenge, whether contamination is on land, water, or in the air, with long-term impact on society.

There is a pressing need to be able to solve pollution issues that are continuously present in the environment (i.e. PFAS in water and long-term monitoring and remediation after an incident is now required by law).

The UK has a clear commitment to reach Net-Zero by 2050 and, while a transition has started, hydrocarbons will continue to be required in parallel with new sources of energy.

Given the age of the hydrocarbon infrastructure, there is a requirement to extend life of assets as much as possible while avoiding new investments in infrastructure until new energy sources can be used.

The biodiversity of the UK is under threat and the impact is already felt in natural habitats out of balance, resulting in lower agricultural yields.

The overall ESG agenda emphasizing the 'E'

Managing storms, floods, higher temperature variations, drought.

The climate change challenge encompasses all of the above factors and will be a priority for most blue-chip companies going forward.
