Bruno Grünenfelder
Leading Expert Environment
Soil science and contaminated sites are Bruno Grünenfelder’s speciality. One of the focal points of his project work is the deconstruction and environmental remediation of industrial properties. He was, for example, involved in the demolition of Henkel’s Persil factory in Pratteln, the Hero site in Lenzburg and various fuel depots and gasworks. In addition, he is also responsible for the planning and implementation of soil protection measures on construction sites in agricultural areas within the context of pedological site support. Bruno headed our Environmental Technology division from 2016 to 2025 and is now a senior expert at Basler & Hofmann.
The diversity of my work and projects. As a pedological site consultant or contaminated sites manager on construction sites of all kinds – from small-scale soil improvement on a farm to a large industrial site –, I implement projects together with farmers or machine operators. As a project manager and expert, I initiate and design projects together with our clients.
Geologist. Rocks fascinate me in their diversity. They tell stories from times long past and create fantastic landscapes. Besides, they also form the basis of my favourite hobby – climbing.
