Soil remediation, safe and sustainable development with minimal disruption

Getting from a soil survey to the final delivery of a soil remediation project can easily take five years or longer, impacting any development significantly. A well-considered specific approach per sector can shorten the duration. Sweco ensures rapid response and efficient project execution through proactivity, helping you to stay ahead of compliance deadlines and environmental obligations.

In Flanders, over 6.000 soil remediation projects were submitted between 1997 and 2023. Since 2005, this number has increased steeply due to stricter regulations and legislation [source].
