Control your environmental risks

Apave teams support you throughout your projects, protecting your employees and the environment by carrying out:

• surveys
• sampling
• analyses
• tests
• measurements
• support to operate an ICPE (installation classified for protection of the environment) requiring declaration, registration or authorisation
• technical support to develop and roll-out your low-carbon strategy

Your challenge is to know and control the impact of your activity on your environment and to protect your employees against chemical risks, noise, electromagnetic fields and lighting.

Apave has developed a wide range of support services to respond to your challenges and inform your strategic decision-making, while ensuring your compliance

• Exterior air quality, measurements of atmospheric emissions and fall-out in the environment
• Connected sensors to measure air quality in real time and issue alerts in the event of deviations
• Groundwater and surface water samples, analyses and diagnostics to minimise pollution risks
• Noise (environment, projected acoustics, building) and vibration measurements to protect surrounding populations from noise pollution
• Risk assessment of odours and lighting
• IAQ (interior air quality) aeration and ventilation check
• Prevention of Legionella risk 
• Inspection and maintenance of backflow preventers
• Ventilation and sanitation inspections 
• Chemical risk exposure checks (HCA, CMR)
• Radon exposure checks for affected geographical areas
• Control of airborne contamination (service buildings, public buildings, hospital environment) 
• Examination of polluted sites and soils 
• Support for soil depollution in urban redevelopment and brownfield conversion projects 
• Assistance with building and/or evaluating your low-carbon strategy (ACT®, SBTi, etc.)
• Verification of your GHG emissions declarations (CO2 quotas & CBAM), according to Directive 2003/87/EC and associated regulations
