What Ginger Burgeap does

Ginger Burgeap is a French environmental engineering consultancy (bureau d'études) headquartered in Issy-les-Moulineaux, founded in 1947 and operating as a wholly owned subsidiary of Groupe Ginger. The firm provides professional engineering services across contaminated site and soil remediation, water resource management, air quality assessment, geothermal engineering, hydrogeology, and sustainable urban development, serving three principal client segments: public-sector collectivités and aménageurs, industrial operators including ICPE (Installation Classée pour la Protection de l'Environnement) exploiters, and financial actors requiring environmental due diligence.

The technical core rests on a portfolio of proprietary methodologies and tools — FLUXOBAT (VOC transfer evaluation from soils to indoor/outdoor air), RHIZOTEST (laboratory simulation of soil-to-plant contaminant transfer), MACAOH (diagnostic methodology for volatile compound contamination), RiverSound (acoustic monitoring of riverine sediment transport), and NOCEO (construction-site nuisance monitoring) — supported by specialized software (OREOS, SAMBBA, CARTORISK, SIMUSCOPP) and an in-house R&D function. Ginger Burgeap holds LNE certification under the AFNOR NF X 31-620 standard across domains A (Studies, Assistance and Control), B (Engineering of rehabilitation works) and D (ATTES services), and maintains active research partnerships with EDF, INRAE, CSTB, INERIS, Université Grenoble Alpes and Université de Tours.

Commercially, the firm operates a project-based, quote-driven professional services model with no disclosed pricing or subscription structure. Distribution is via a national network of agencies across metropolitan France plus a Caribbean presence, using consultative enterprise field sales targeting public procurement and industrial compliance buyers. The firm has roughly 350 engineers pre-integration, rising to approximately 400 with the July 2026 operational integration of HPC Envirotec (acquired by Groupe Ginger in March 2025), and has expanded its service surface in 2024-2025 through a Biodiversity pole, an Ecological Engineering pole (October 2025), and the STRATEM strategic-consulting platform within the parent group.

Core offering

Ginger BURGEAP is a French environmental engineering consultancy that delivers professional services across contaminated site and soil remediation, water resource management, air quality, geothermal energy, and sustainable urban development. The firm offers integrated expertise — from site diagnostics and risk assessment to remediation engineering, regulatory compliance (ICPE), and R&D — supported by proprietary methodologies (FLUXOBAT, RHIZOTEST, MACAOH) and LNE certification under AFNOR NF X 31-620.

Product overview

Ginger BURGEAP is an environmental engineering consulting firm operating since 1947, providing specialized professional services rather than a unified software product. The portfolio centers on environmental site management with LNE-certified services (Domains A, B, D) following NF X 31-620 standard, complemented by specialized methodologies including FLUXOBAT (VOC transfer evaluation), RHIZOTEST (plant bio-transfer simulation), and NOCEO (construction nuisance monitoring). Core services span polluted site remediation, water resource management, geothermal energy, and air quality. The 2025 creation of the Ecological Engineering Division (Pôle Génie Écologique) expanded offerings into biodiversity and living soil engineering. Recent integration of HPC Envirotec (50+ engineers) and launch of STRATEM strategic consulting have further diversified the service portfolio.
