Company profile - Independent Testing Specialist

This client is the UK's leading specialist in independent testing, validation and verification of systems designed to protect against hazardous ground gas ingress.


Since 2015, construction and design standards internationally have begun to be restructured, with the aim of eliminating all possible factors that relate to the failure of systems applied to protect against life-threatening ground gas ingress into new constructions.

The spearhead of these changes was in the UK, with the updated version of the British Standard Code of Practice for the design of protective measures for methane and carbon dioxide ground gases for new buildings.


As a result of the introduction of the British Standard Code of Practice, they provide specialist verification for all new buildings, ensuring the code of practice is maintained and adhered to the highest standard.


They operate throughout the UK, with services extending across Europe via our EU office in Dublin and Globally from our base in Manila, Philippines.
