Dams and Levees – Protection for people and nature

Whether new buildings, renovations, sealing or rehabilitation – we create solutions that fulfil your requirements. Around the world, dams perform two essential tasks: They store water for human consumption, irrigation of fields and industrial processes. Dams generate electricity from hydropower using turbines, thereby making an important contribution to reducing the carbon footprint. At the same time, they protect residents and buildings from the risks posed by the immense force of water, whether by standing or flowing bodies of water or in areas around ground level. Thanks to our many years of expertise in the area of dams and levees, we know what matters most: We focus on precise measurements that not only improve protection but also extend the service life of your sites. Rely on us for safe and future-oriented management of your dam projects – to protect people and nature.
