Safeguard groundwater quality with expert remediation solutions. Horizon Environmental delivers advanced groundwater treatment systems across the UK, using innovative technologies to restore contaminated aquifers whilst protecting water resources and ensuring environmental compliance.

Groundwater remediation projects encounter diverse contamination scenarios requiring specialist expertise:

Common Groundwater Contamination Challenges

Groundwater remediation projects encounter diverse contamination scenarios requiring specialist expertise:


  • Industrial solvent contamination from manufacturing processes, degreasing operations, and chemical storage affecting deep aquifers
  • Petroleum hydrocarbon plumes from fuel storage tanks, pipelines, and service stations contaminating water supply sources
  • Heavy metal contamination from mining activities, industrial processes, and waste disposal sites with complex geochemistry
  • Mixed contamination scenarios requiring multiple treatment technologies and phased remediation approaches
  • Deep aquifer contamination in complex geological settings requiring sophisticated extraction and treatment systems

Important: Groundwater contamination can spread rapidly through aquifer systems, affecting water supplies over wide areas. Professional intervention prevents contamination spread and protects water resources.

Professional groundwater remediation is essential to:

The Importance of Professional Groundwater Remediation

Professional groundwater remediation is essential to:


  • Protect water supplies by preventing contamination spread to public and private water sources including wells and boreholes
  • Restore aquifer quality through targeted treatment that addresses contamination sources and prevents recontamination
  • Meet regulatory obligations for groundwater protection under environmental permits and water framework directive requirements
  • Prevent long-term liability through effective treatment with appropriate monitoring and performance validation programmes
  • Enable site development by removing groundwater contamination barriers and obtaining regulatory clearance

Our groundwater expertise protects valuable water resources whilst enabling sustainable site development and environmental restoration.

Our portfolio demonstrates capability across challenging groundwater contamination scenarios:

Comprehensive Project Experience

Our portfolio demonstrates capability across challenging groundwater contamination scenarios:


  • Industrial Facilities: Chemical works, manufacturing sites, and processing facilities with complex dissolved phase contamination
  • Fuel Storage Sites: Petrol stations, depots, and terminals with light non-aqueous phase liquid (LNAPL) recovery requirements
  • Landfill Sites: Historic waste disposal facilities with leachate contamination and gas management requirements
  • Mining Legacy Sites: Former extraction sites with acid mine drainage and heavy metal contamination challenges

Trust us to handle your groundwater remediation challenges with proven hydrogeological expertise and innovative treatment solutions.
