Envirowest is a Canadian-owned professional consultancy committed to providing our clients state-of-the-art services in the environmental sector.

We deliver innovative and cost-effective solutions to project demands. These solutions incorporate both classical and contemporary knowledge regarding the subject at hand, ensuring that triedand-tested approaches are advanced with new knowledge, providing adaptive approaches to problem resolution that adequately serve the needs of the project.

The foundation of our approach to our work is ‘saper vedere’ (‘to know how to see’).

‘To see’, however, is more than what is simply observed by sight alone. It is the ability to interpret what is observed, and translate that interpretation into the context of the task at hand. We engage the task fully, supporting our observations with contemporary, scientific and state-of-the-art information. Solutions integrate multiple values, and are sustainable both economically and ecologically.
