Specialised environmental impact assessments for civil and infrastructure projects across Dunedin and the Otago region

  • Developing sustainable solutions to environmental problems
  • Ensure the natural environment is protected through beneficial practices
  • Experienced Dunedin-based environmental engineering team 
      Fluent Solutions works Otago-wide, with offices in Dunedin and Queenstown.

      Fluent Solutions delivers sustainable engineering solutions for large commercial and public sector contracts

      Environmental engineers work to protect water, air, soil and built environments. They evaluate and assess options, design innovative and sustainable systems, and develop regulations and controls to solve issues that negatively impact the natural environment. As the world's demand for materials, food and energy grows, so does the need for environmental engineers to protect our finite natural resources. 

      Fluent Solutions's qualified environmental engineers identify, assess and solve significant problems associated with the environment, resource allocation and sustainability to ensure local water and civil infrastructure projects do not negatively affect their environment.
