From Contamination to Recovery: Giving Nature a Fresh Start

Across Europe, countless former industrial areas and landfills still bear the marks of environmental degradation. Beneath our feet, contaminated soils and groundwater silently affect ecosystems, agriculture, and public health.

At Intergeo Hellas, our goal is clear: to turn these degraded environments into stories of renewal. Through advanced & green remediation practices, detailed site  assessments, and sustainable restoration, we help nature recover — one site at a time.

Understanding the Challenge

Soil and groundwater contamination can result from industrial leaks, waste mismanagement, or long-term chemical accumulation.

These pollutants — from hydrocarbons, PFAS, and heavy metals to solvents — pose complex risks that demand data-driven solutions.
For municipalities and industries, effective remediation means:

  • Environmental compliance
  • Community safety
  • Restoration of land value

The Science of Restoration

Each remediation project starts with a detailed site assessment.At Intergeo, we provide comprehensive site assessment services, including hydrogeological modeling, soil sampling, contamination mapping, High-Resolution Site Characterization (HRSC), NAPL transmissivity testing, and risk assessment. These tools enable us to develop improved Conceptual Site Models that support accurate decision-making and effective remediation strategies.

Intergeo applies both in situ and ex situ technologies, including:

  • Bioremediation – using microorganisms to break down pollutants
  • In Situ Chemical Oxidation – injecting powerful chemical oxidants  to break down harmful pollutants
  • Pump & Treat – cleaning groundwater through extraction and filtration
  • Thermal desorption – applying controlled heat to remove volatile compounds
  • Air sparging – injecting air to strip volatile contaminants and enhance aerobic biodegradation

Each method is selected based on geology, pollutant type, and restoration goals — ensuring minimal disruption and long-term recovery.

From Degradation to Renewal

Restoration is more than a technical process — it’s a symbol of regeneration.
Rehabilitated sites once again support vegetation, biodiversity, and community use.

At Intergeo, every remediation project represents nature’s second chance, powered by science, technology, and responsibility. 🌍

Building a Sustainable Future

Restoration isn’t just about removing pollution — it’s about rebalancing our relationship with nature.
By combining research, innovation, and collaboration, we can turn contaminated sites into living examples of sustainable recovery.
