CPX Season 2024

CPX Season 2024

The G+P pavement acoustics team has been carrying out close-proximity measurements (CPX) throughout Switzerland since 2008. The eventful 2024 CPX measurement season came to an end with the first snowfall at the end of November. While initial preparations for next year are already being planned and organised, we would like to summarise the 2024 CPX measurement season at the end of the year.

In January 2024, as "The New Boss", I explained in a video statement what is important to us and to me at G+P. After almost a year as the new CEO, it's time for a little look back. Our values take centre stage. Values are a key success factor, especially for SMEs like us.

Grolimund + Partner creates added value in all areas of its offering.

We are leaders in our specialist areas of outdoor noise, road surface acoustics, building physics, software and research & development. We provide high-quality services and develop solutions that benefit people and the environment.

40 years of G+P: Celebrating creativity

To mark our 40th anniversary, we launched a creative challenge for our customers - the folding puzzle! It was about more than just skill: originality and creative staging took centre stage. The entries overwhelmed us and we are proud to honour the three most original contributions. But for us, every participant is a winner!

Our 40th anniversary

A weekend full of memories in Châteaux-d'Oex. Last weekend, we celebrated a special event: 40 years of company history. Our anniversary trip to Châteaux-d'Oex was a complete success, bringing us together with 60 employees from various branches. Thanks to bright sunshine, a great atmosphere and a varied programme, this weekend will remain unforgettable.

«What I appreciate most about G+P is the wide range of building physics topics that we are able to deal with on a daily basis as part of an outstanding team. It is a personal concern of mine to support and accompany our customers every day on their way to greater energy efficiency and sustainability. In this way, I can make a personal contribution to a ‘greener’ world of tomorrow, both for the general public and for my two small children, for whom I have plenty of time thanks to my ‘daddy day’ and 80% workload.»

«I find it exciting and enriching to exchange ideas across disciplines in the G+P team. Everyone contributes their own experience and expertise, whether it's during a project meeting, a coffee break or an after-work beer. We always come up with creative and goal-oriented solutions for our customers, even for particularly challenging problems.»

«As an energy and sustainability consultant, I enjoy supporting clients in making their buildings more durable, comfortable, productive and efficient. I am particularly fascinated by the systemic interrelationships and finding holistic solutions in this context.»

«G + P allows me to be active in various areas such as building physics, building and room acoustics or building simulations – not only through various calculations in the office but also through measurements on the construction site. Many older buildings are contaminated with pollutants (asbestos, PCB, PAH). As a building pollutant diagnostician and radon expert, I take care of people's health before renovations and deconstructions. In addition to the use and processing of low-pollutant and ecological materials, it is important to me that the indoor air quality (formaldehyde, VOC, CO2) is right in the end. Through product testing during construction and indoor air measurements at the end of construction, I take care of the comfort and well-being of the new occupants.»

«I have been at G+P for just over a year as a project leader in research and development. I have learned a lot about road acoustics and their measurement in the past year, as G+P is a pioneer in this field in Switzerland. At the same time, there is always room to bring my skills and experience to the table, while developing new ones.»

«At G+P, I can apply my expertise to a huge variety of projects, from architectural competitions to interior design - whether it's an assessment of the volumetrics or the proportion of glass in a giant superstructure or choosing the right curtain fabric for the acoustics in a living room. I find the exchange with customers and other construction experts enriching and instructive. I particularly appreciate the friendly atmosphere at G+P, the uncomplicated exchange and flexible organization.»

«With the CPX measurement system, we are on the road all over Switzerland measuring the acoustic effect of road surfaces. During these measurements, I discovered many beautiful places throughout Switzerland and was inspired by the different landscapes: sunsets in the canton of Fribourg, summer days on Lake Maggiore or winding drives up unknown mountain passes. The perfect balance to the daily office routine.»

«Noisy industrial plants are often located on the roofs of high buildings. For measurement campaigns, I therefore regularly find myself at lofty heights and can enjoy the panorama from unique locations. The combination of field work (with foresight), the analytical and editorial work in the office and the variety of noise sources and projects make the work in the outdoor noise team at Grolimund+Partner very varied.»
