About Us

Remedios is a well-established and innovative company, spun out of the University of Aberdeen in 1999. Remedios has successfully exploited the commercial opportunities arising from unique biosensor technology developed within the University. The biosensor technology is used in conjunction with traditional site investigations and environmental risk assessments to diagnose problem sites and develop technologies to remediate them.

From Environment Agency figures, it is estimated that there are 100,000 contaminated sites in the UK. Property development is increasingly occurring on brownfield land. Bioremediation provides a novel but cost effective method of ensuring that brownfield land is suitable for development. Changes in landfill legislation and other tax incentives are making this the most rapidly growing sector in the land remediation market. Recent and future environmental legislation is likely to accelerate this trend. Remedios is ideally positioned to take advantage of this growing market by virtue of its novel and proprietary technologies.

Remedios offers a variety of services that apply advanced and innovative science and experienced management to allow cost-effective bioremediation of contaminated sites. Since its formation, the Company has built up a solid track record in the remediation industry, successfully concluding a number of high profile remediation projects for clients in the UK and internationally.
