Trapezia

What Trapezia does

Trapezia AB is an independent environmental consulting firm founded in 2013 and headquartered at Tegnérgatan 39 in central Stockholm, Sweden. The company delivers a portfolio of eleven interconnected environmental advisory services to companies, property owners, and public-sector organizations across Sweden, spanning contaminated-site assessment and remediation (MIFO Phase 1/2 inventories, environmental due diligence, phytoremediation), certified sampling under the Nordtest NT ENVIR 008 standard, environmental permitting for environmentally hazardous activities, nature value inventories under the Swedish SS 199000:2014 standard, bat and bark beetle (granbarkborre) field surveys, environmental impact assessments, EPDs under EN 15804, and strategic sustainability reporting under GRI and CSRD. Its technical differentiation rests on certified personnel, regulatory-grade sampling protocols, and a bark beetle detection-dog capability that the firm itself cites as finding more than one-third additional infested trees and operating more than twice as efficiently as visual inspection.

The company operates a project-based professional services model with quote-driven, scope-based pricing and multi-year client engagements. Customer acquisition is sales-led and combines organic Swedish-language SEO on its website, direct phone and email contact ([email protected], +46 8 87 27 39), a structured inquiry form segmented by service category, and professional referrals among Swedish enterprises, real-estate owners, and public entities. Trapezia emphasizes complete independence from contractors, property developers, and authorities as both a positioning claim and an actual go-to-market posture: it carries no disclosed external ownership, no funding rounds, no parent-subsidiary relationships, and no M&A activity, and self-describes as a bootstrapped, founder-owned boutique that has completed more than 500 projects over a decade of operation.

Monetization is concentrated entirely in Sweden and is built around repeat project engagements, training courses, and specialized field surveys rather than software or platform revenue, and all growth to date has been organic and service-line additive - contaminated-site depth in 2015, strategic sustainability in 2018, training in 2020, and the bark beetle detection dog offering - rather than acquisitive.

Product overview

Trapezia is an independent environmental consulting company offering a comprehensive portfolio of environmental consulting services in Sweden. The service offering comprises eleven distinct but interconnected service areas: Contaminated Areas (fororenade områden), Certified Sampling (Certifierad provtagning), Training/Education (Utbildningar), Nature Value Inventory (Naturvärdesinventering — NVI), Environmental and Operational Support (Miljö- och verksamhetsstöd), Bat Inventory (Fladdermuskartering), Investigations (Utredningar), Environmental Permits (Miljötillstånd), EPD/Environmental Product Declaration (EPD/Miljövarudeklaration), Strategic Sustainability (Strategiskt hållbarhetsarbete), and Bark Beetle Detection Dog (Barkborrehund). These services range from technical field investigations and remediation consulting to strategic advisory, regulatory compliance, and specialized biodiversity surveys. The company operates as a unified consulting practice rather than a software platform, with services often being combined to address complex client needs across contaminated sites, sustainability reporting, permits, and environmental monitoring.

Broad incumbents

• WSP Sverige: Multinational engineering consultancy with a large Swedish environmental practice (formerly Golder). Competes for the same contaminated-site, permitting, and sustainability mandates at much larger scale, often absorbing boutique work via national framework contracts.
• SWECO: Leading Swedish-headquartered engineering and environmental consultancy with deep public-sector and infrastructure client base. Competes for many of the same permit, EIA, and contaminated-site mandates Trapezia targets, with broader geographic reach.
• AFRY (ÅF): Large Nordic engineering and design consultancy with substantial Swedish environmental services. Overlaps with Trapezia on environmental permits, contaminated land, and sustainability/CSRD advisory, typically at industrial-client scale.
• Tyréns: Swedish engineering consultancy with established environment and water practice. Competes on EIA, nature assessments, contaminated land, and permitting for infrastructure developers and municipalities across Sweden.
• Arcadis Sweden: Global design and consultancy firm with environmental and remediation services in Sweden. Competes for large-scale contaminated land, environmental due diligence, and sustainability mandates that sit adjacent to Trapezia's SME and mid-market focus.
• COWI Sweden: Danish-headquartered engineering consultancy with Nordic environmental services. Overlaps with Trapezia on contaminated-site remediation, permitting, and environmental impact assessment for industrial and infrastructure clients.
• Ramboll Sweden: Global engineering, environment and health consultancy with significant Swedish presence. Directly competes on environmental impact assessments, contaminated sites, and sustainability strategy — a primary alternative for clients seeking integrated multi-disciplinary support.

Direct peers

• Enveco Miljökonsult AB: Small Sweden-based environmental consulting firm offering environmental investigations, permitting, and remediation support. Comparable boutique scale and direct overlap with Trapezia's contaminated land and EIA offerings.
• Calluna AB: Swedish environmental consultancy specializing in nature value inventories (NVI), species surveys, and ecological assessments. Closely comparable to Trapezia in scope and geography, with similar NVI / biodiversity capabilities and a focus on protected species surveys in Sweden.
