MTM Ingenieurgemeinschaft has been offering environmental engineering services to detect and evaluate hazardous substances in buildings and industrial plants and to solve resulting problems since 1989. A team of qualified civil engineers co-ordinate the complete process from the first detection of contamination to the handing-over of the pollutant-free building, industrial plant or system. Steps offered include the analysis of the problem and the design of a solution, elaborating usually on various options for the implementation. A plan is set up and possible time and financial frameworks for the tasks are presented. The most sensible solution is chosen in close co-operation with the customer under consideration of his individual requirements and priorities. Special attention is paid to the fact that the solution must be innovative but also feasible. This solution is then carried out with co-operation partners and subcontractors. Drawing up of tenders and identification of suitable partners is part of the complete service of the engineering company as well as the monitoring of the project progress.

Due to their high degree of specialisation and long experience the company staff have become experts in the following activities related to the above areas:

• detection and evaluation of hazardous substances
• analysis of solid samples and air samples
• registration and documentation of hazardous substances
