Environmental Due Diligence

When considering transactions and/or the selling of factories and property, it is of the utmost importance to evaluate the environmental status of the object under consideration to know and/or exclude hidden risks.

Alongside classic soil- and groundwater investigations we therefore offer complete environmental reviews (Environmental Due Diligence Assessments) to determine the current situation of

• Properties
• Factories
• Industrial sites
• Local infrastructure

in the areas of environmental protection and work safety.

This includes:
• Historical research
• Waste management
• The storage of hazardous materials
• Waste water
• Ventilated air
• Occupational health and safety
• Legal compliance

A risk analysis is performed taking the local surroundings into consideration and, where environmental standards and legal requirements need to be improved, the necessary investments are illustrated.

This is vital information that serves as evidence conservation for the seller and risk minimization and investment planning for the purchaser. Also, hidden liabilities can be evaluated or excluded.

Depending on what is required, the environmental report can also include an evaluation of the status quo of occupational health & safety.
