Our long history in the field means we have a deep understanding of evolving laws, best practices, and the practical challenges our clients face. We've successfully guided countless organizations and private households through the intricacies of asbestos and Chromium-6 (Cr(VI)) risk management, ensuring compliance, safety, and peace of mind.

Renewable Energy for Private Households

We offer specialized advice on renewable energy solutions for private households.

Homeowners today have a unique opportunity to reduce their environmental impact and lower long-term costs by investing in systems like solar panels and small wind turbines. We can guide you through the process, from assessing the potential for your property and selecting the right technology to understanding government subsidies and tax credits.

At-Home Energy Storage (Battery)

A crucial part of this is at-home energy storage. Systems like battery storage allow you to capture excess energy generated during the day and use it at night, on cloudy days, or during power outages. This not only increases your energy independence by reducing reliance on the grid but can also lead to significant savings on your electricity bills, especially if you're on a variable rate plan. We can help you determine the right size and type of storage solution for your needs, ensuring you get the most out of your renewable energy system.

Asbestos and Chromium-6 Specialization

In addition to our general consulting services, we specialize in addressing specific risks like asbestos and Chromium-6 (Cr(VI)). Whether it’s surveying for hazardous materials on your property, managing files in the national asbestos tracking system (LAVS), or handling Chromium-6 in old paint, we ensure you face minimal hassle and risk. Our expertise lies in the conscious and practical handling of these substances so you can focus on your daily operations.

More About Chromium-6: Chromium-6 is a highly toxic and carcinogenic substance that was widely used in the past in industrial paints and coatings, primarily for its rust-preventive properties. It only poses a risk when it is released, for example, by grinding, sawing, or sanding. Just as with asbestos, the correct surveying, management, and remediation of Chromium-6 are essential for the safety of employees and the environment.

The Four Pillars of Risk Management

Policy: Establishing a clear strategy and procedures for addressing environmental issues and hazardous materials.
Professional Surveying and Remediation: Conducting thorough investigations to determine the presence and risks of substances, followed by safe and expert remediation where necessary.
Registration: Accurately maintaining all data in the correct systems, such as the Dutch national asbestos tracking system (LAVS), to ensure compliance with all legal requirements.
Risk Management: Controlling risks to prevent health problems and financial damage.

These risks, particularly the carcinogenic properties of both asbestos fibers and Chromium-6 particles, are precisely why these substances are no longer welcome in our society.
