We provide expert consultancy for any project within the entire water circuit. From drinking water supply in major cities to rural areas in development countries. And we plan and design water management solutions in large and small scale projects across the globe.
Water is essential to any society. Clean drinking water is a necessary condition to any form of life. However, these precious drops are under constant threat from drought, water scarcity, pollution, water losses and numerous other challenges. At the same time, water is an infrastructural challenge to any city and nation – no matter how advanced or simple.
NIRAS employs more than 300 engineers and water specialists with profound expertise in all elements of the water circuit, and we offer expert consultancy within all disciplines related to water. We secure the drinking water supply of the future when designing water treatment plants, ensuring drinking water quality, effective drinking water distribution, planning and analyses, as well as sustainable abstraction of water resources. And we fight water losses and water scarcity with high-tech technology and expert knowledge - and we strive for continuous efficiency improvements through digitalisation and innovation.
Water runs in inseparable cycles. Our trademark holistic approach involves finding interdisciplinary solutions in collaboration with our clients and partners. This is our way of creating sustainable drinking water solutions – through partnerships with professional excellence and consistent high quality in project deliverances.
