Assessing the impact of odour is one of our core services. Since inception, we have developed many innovations in odour assessment methodology and modelling techniques.
Our odour capabilities are underpinned by the expertise of the companies' founders, Robin Ormerod and Nigel Holmes, who are recognised as leading authorities on odour worldwide. And on a day-to-day basis, our odour services are lead by Geordie Galvin, one of the country’s most experienced consultants in this discipline.
