Activities
During the fifty-odd years since its founding Peutz has executed more than 10.000 commissions, from comparatively small up to very large projects, like Schiphol Airport (Amsterdam). During this period the company and its employees have specialized in a number of related fields.
A major philosophy of Peutz is the integration of experimental and state of the art computational facilities in the consulting practice. Hence the company has had its own laboratories since its founding.
