Our team of specialists

• creates the complete permit application documents,
• furnishes the required expert surveys / forecasts (air pollutants, odour, noise) and the environmental impact assessment,
• coordinates any further expert surveys necessary,
• accompanies you throughout the approval procedure,
• supports you during the public hearing and in the communication with citizens' initiative groups and interested citizens,

We will not leave you alone even after the issuance of the permit. Our approval and requirements management in the construction phase (including permit register) secures a realization process pursuant to the permit.

Our references range from simple storage facilities to large integrated industrial plants and power plants.

In 2006 we introduced a new field of business: renewable energies (approval procedures for wind farms, biomass power plants, biogas, bioethanol and biodiesel plants).
