Industrial Hygiene
KCI’s engineers, scientists, and industrial hygienists help organizations control and manage health and ecological risks, as well as regulatory and financial liabilities by identifying problems, evaluating potential environmental impacts, and developing practical solutions. Working with government and industrial clients, KCI project teams apply cost-effective, technically sound, and innovative strategies to mitigate environmental challenges, earning regulatory agency approval and public acceptance for projects.
