History
BluMetric has a long and proud past.
From our company's origins in the 1970s to the amalgamation in November 2012 of Seprotech and WESA, our focus has always been giving our clients the best and most effective sustainable solutions for their environmental challenges.
Our projects have ranged from waste remediation in the far north to mine site assessment to potable and wastewater solutions for remote locations. We clean up well.
WESA was founded in 1976, specializing in the provision of high-level hydrogeology expertise to meet the clean water and sanitation needs of industry and government.
As public awareness increased and environmental regulation evolved over the past four decades, the company’s service base and areas of expertise broadened significantly. WESA undertook extensive research and development in the areas of contaminated site remediation, water/wastewater treatment, and finding better ways to investigate, characterize and resolve environmental impacts. WESA operated in many industrial sectors, was well diversified, and completed thousands of projects on behalf of hundreds of clients over the years. WESA's service offerings included all aspects of environmental science & engineering, industrial hygiene, occupational health & safety, environmental risk assessment, permitting and management, geomatics and GIS, environmental compliance auditing, and management systems.
In response to client requests, the WESA Group began offering industrial water and wastewater treatment design-build services through WESAtech. The experience demonstrated that there are highly effective synergies between consulting services and solutions implementation.
Envir-Eau was established in 1990 to deliver professional services to Quebec clients.
What is now BluMetric's renewable energy service line was created in 2006 to provide project development, environmental assessment, and engineering services to the renewable energy, waterpower, and hydraulic structures industry.
WESA operated domestically and completed projects in more than 30 countries, creating relationships that serve BluMetric well.
