Ramboll Group: Engineering for a Sustainable Future
Ramboll Group A/S is a leading international engineering, design, and consultancy company headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark. Founded in 1945, Ramboll has grown into one of Europe’s most respected multidisciplinary consultancies, with more than 18,000 employees working across 35+ countries. Uniquely, the company is owned by the Ramboll Foundation, a structure that ensures independence and allows the company to prioritize long-term sustainability and the mission of “Enabling society’s transition to a sustainable future” over short-term financial goals. This ethos is embedded in every project and decision.
Ramboll delivers integrated, end-to-end engineering and consulting solutions across several key sectors: Buildings and Architecture, Transport and Infrastructure, Energy and Environment, Water and Climate, and Management and Digital Consulting. Its interdisciplinary approach combines world-class technical innovation, proven sustainability strategies, and Scandinavian design principles to shape resilient, efficient, and livable communities worldwide.
A Portfolio of Landmark Projects
Ramboll’s portfolio demonstrates its unparalleled ability to merge technical excellence with profound environmental responsibility. The company has been instrumental in some of the world’s most ambitious and iconic projects:
Øresund Fixed Link (Denmark–Sweden)
A true landmark of modern engineering, this 16 km combined bridge, tunnel, and artificial island connects Copenhagen and Malmö. Ramboll’s contribution was critical, involving complex structural engineering design, transport analysis, and geotechnical studies that made this vital artery between Scandinavia and mainland Europe possible.
Fehmarnbelt Fixed Link (Germany–Denmark)
Set to become the world’s longest immersed tunnel, this 18 km marvel will stretch beneath the Baltic Sea, creating a new, fast connection for road and rail. As the main design consultant, Ramboll is leading the charge in engineering, tunneling, and environmental planning for one of the largest infrastructure projects in European history.
Tate Modern Extension (London, UK)
Ramboll delivered the innovative structural and civil engineering design for the striking new extension of the Tate Modern Museum. The building's unique, twisting brick facade and complex geometry were a significant engineering challenge, and it has since become an architectural icon of sustainable and cultural development in London.
Singapore Integrated Waste Management Facility (Singapore)
This is one of the world’s most advanced and largest integrated waste treatment facilities. Ramboll provided the master design and process engineering for a complex that combines solid waste management, wastewater treatment, and renewable energy generation, setting a global benchmark for the circular economy.
Copenhagen Metro Cityringen (Denmark)
Ramboll played a central, multidisciplinary role in the design and construction planning of Cityringen, a 15.5 km driverless metro system encircling central Copenhagen. The project involved complex underground engineering in a dense urban environment and now serves as a global model for efficient, eco-friendly public transport.
Østerbro Climate Resilient District (Copenhagen)
A pioneering climate adaptation project, this initiative is transforming the Østerbro district into one of Europe’s first climate-resilient neighborhoods. Ramboll designed innovative stormwater management systems, "blue-green" spaces, and advanced flood-control solutions to protect the city from future climate events.
Innovation and Digital Excellence
Ramboll is at the forefront of digital transformation in the engineering and consulting industry. The company invests heavily in digital tools and technologies, including advanced Building Information Modeling (BIM), parametric design, artificial intelligence, and machine learning applications. These tools enhance project delivery, improve collaboration, and enable more informed decision-making, allowing Ramboll to deliver better outcomes for its clients and push the boundaries of design.
