Unlock the power of collaboration and experience
We started our PFAS story in Australia in 2010 with significant project work and have now expanded into a globally connected network to provide multimedia environmental, water, wastewater, biosolids and waste engineering, fire protection engineering expertise globally to offer customized solutions.
GHD offers comprehensive PFAS risk management solutions, leveraging our global expertise monitoring changing PFAS regulations while defining risk management strategies to assess and mitigate PFAS liabilities, including product stewardship and supply chain requirements to design personalized and inventive comprehensive low-cost solutions. Our multi-disciplinary team provides you with accurate information to support informed decisions and develops targeted plans tailored to address the requirements and objectives at hand.
We recognize our clients’ need to focus on their core operations and business while balancing the risk of emerging contaminants.
If mitigation measures become essential, our technical staff are here to assess the most viable treatment approach through bench and pilot scale studies to guide full-scale operations.
We value building trust with our clients, maintaining lasting partnerships, and providing solutions that minimize risks at the heart of our approach.
We develop and implement practical, proven, cost-effective and tailored PFAS responses across nine core areas:
- Expert witness, client advocacy and business advisory support
- Consumer product stewardship and risk reduction
- Pollution prevention and mitigation
- Site investigation and waste management
- PFAS release and facility risk management
- Soil and groundwater assessment and remediation
- Human health and ecological risk assessment
- Drinking water treatment wastewater and biosolids solutions
- Firefighting system assessment, design/engineering and AFFF (Aqueous Film-Forming Foam) replacement and disposal
