Technically innovative solutions

We Work Closely with Designers and Developers to Meet Exact Requirements

Our engineers welcome the chance to work with project designers from the early stages to ensure a value-engineered option that delivers optimal performance to meet design load demands and programme. Aarsleff provides its clients with a comprehensive range of specialist geotechnical services for the planning, design, and implementation of ground engineering projects, as well as for managing ground risks associated with all Energy projects.

Aarsleff benefits from the experience and established track record of our Danish parent company and German sister company, which, together, have designed and installed the Centrum Pile System for thousands of wind turbine foundations across mainland Europe in this specialised sector of the construction industry.

In the United Kingdom, we have become an industry leader in the design and installation of piles to support wind turbines, Biomass Plants and Power Stations. Aarsleff works closely with designers and developers to meet the exacting requirements of our clients.
