Bureau Veritas partners with clients to understand the industries in which they work, the communities where they live, and the agencies that regulate them. From acquisition and development, to operation, demolition and sale, we help you manage environmental risks. We have the experience to understand the concerns of all stakeholders and the expertise to deliver comprehensive solutions to effectively address them.Proper management of environmental issues can add considerable value to buildings and properties by providing documentation of remediation efforts and proper operations and maintenance (O&M) procedures.Building owners and property managers also face environmental issues associated with ongoing operations of facilities. Day-to-day operations, tenant improvements, renovations, and building demolition all require investigation and sampling of various building materials.

The fast pace of the commercial real estate and investment industry requires rapid financial decisions. To protect against potential litigation and remediation costs associated with environmental issues, financial institutions and corporations require environmental information before making a financial commitment. Due diligence is the investor’s process of investigating the details of a potential investment, such as examining operations and maintenance procedures, and verifying material facts.

From preparation of field sampling media to the collection of air and the subsequent analysis, Bureau Veritas has extensive experience with all phases of collection-related analysis. We are internationally recognized for our reputation for data reliability for many analyses, including TSP or PM10, as well as metals and dustfall measurement. Additionally, we are experienced in analyzing a comprehensive list of organic compounds including dioxins and furans, PCBs, semi-volatiles, volatile organics as well as low level VOC analysis using SUMMA canisters.
