About Us
Leading global supplier of inspection technology
From metal detectors to thermal imaging cameras; we have come a long way and technology has changed but, we are still committed to finding simple solutions to the most interesting problems.
Established in 1981, we were born out of ingenuity. We solved our first project – detecting the reinforced steel structure of Glasgow’s Yorkhill Hospital – using a metal detector. Since then we have grown, invested and developed as technology has changed and always use our imagination to solve the trickiest of problems.
Everyone has void spaces they occasionally need to investigate or places which they cannot easily or safely get to – that is where our team of dedicated and skilled personnel can provide a means or resource to undertake the inspection. Under water, on water, below ground, on ground or above ground we have equipment that can do the job safely and effectively. We can offer rental or contracting options for the equipment and if required can engineer the whole project for you.
Today, we operate globally and are one of the UK’s leading suppliers of progressive inspection solutions. Headquartered in Aberdeen, Scotland, we also have an office in Brisbane, Australia, which covers the Australasian market, and a network of overseas agents.
