We are experts in a wide range of coastal protection methods such as the construction of hard sea defences such as sea walls, dykes, breakwaters underwater bunds fixed piers or open-piled jetties sand traps such as groynes coastal armouring with revetments, gabions, accropodes, as well as soft engineering solutions including sand dune stabilisation and beach nourishment.ĭecades of experience in designing, engineering and constructing the world’s ports

And as climate change leads to a rise in sea levels and the melting of the ice caps, this global challenge is only made more acute.ĭEME has the knowledge and experience needed to assist with this global issue. The world’s population is expected to increase by 2 billion persons in the next 30 years, from 7.7 billion currently to a staggering 9.7 billion in 2050, according to the United Nations and coupled with that, half of the global population lives within 200 km of the sea.Īs coastal areas become increasingly densely populated, coastal erosion protection and flood defence measures become even more crucial.
