Where hazardous materials
stand no chance.

As experienced hazardous materials specialists, we provide safe, compliant and sustainable solutions for every type of building. We assess each situation individually and develop a tailored remediation plan, including zone planning and air balance calculations.

We inspect properties for asbestos, PAHs, PCBs and other relevant building pollutants in accordance with Article 16 of the Swiss Waste Ordinance (VVEA). In close coordination with SUVA and Zurich’s UGZ, we reliably deliver even complex projects.

Sponsorship

Passion deserves support.

Behind every sporting dream are people who believe in it. As a family business, we know the difference trust, togetherness and perseverance can make. That is why we support people pursuing their passion — and organisations making sport accessible to more people.

Young talent in motorsport

LB Racing GmbH

Big dreams often start small. Through our support for LB Racing GmbH, we help children enjoy their passion for motorsport and pursue their sporting journey. What matters to us is the joy of sport, learning and the courage to believe in yourself.
