Aviation
Airports are the backbone of the global village, and are increasingly expected to show leadership and results in sustainability. With experience from some of the world’s most iconic airports, Ramboll is at the forefront of this transformation.
Expect more from airports
Airports are central hubs in the global economy. But they are also increasingly expected to address their environmental and carbon footprint – while operating in a challenging post-Covid environment.
For airports to be successful in the future, they need resilient sustainability strategies for both existing and future infrastructure. Ramboll has the capabilities to help airports optimise current and future infrastructure assets and processes to meet tomorrow’s sustainability demands, while optimising the profitability of airport assets
Ramboll’s expertise spans a wide range of consultancy services, from developing strategies for airlines, to designing masterplans for whole airports, consulting on terminal extensions and developing cost-effective maintenance procedures for runways.
We have delivered 600+ aviation projects in over 45 countries, encompassing 60 million m2 of airside and landside development. This gives us an in-depth understanding of airport processes, technology infrastructure, and people.
Working in the most demanding climates and complex operational environments
At airports large and small, we have worked in some of the world’s most demanding climates and constrained and complex operational environments. Our work at major airports includes UKairports such as Heathrow and Gatwick, US airports such as Washington DC &Los Angeles, and many others across the world from Russia to India, Africa and South America.
