Accreditations & Associations

SAFETY, QUALITY AND TECHNICAL ACCREDITATIONS, AND INSURANCE

Every relationship needs to start somewhere. And while our longstanding clients quickly come to trust our engineers to work in a safe, professional way, we appreciate you’ll need further evidence that we’re appropriately qualified.

To help, we hold multiple independent technical, quality and safety accreditations. We work closely with leading industry bodies, to ensure best practice, and carry significant insurance cover – and we’re one of very few companies accredited by Lloyd’s to inspect lifesaving appliances.

Of course, we’re more than happy to provide references from satisfied customers in any relevant sector.

Multiple insurances, including airfield cover

Given the challenging and safety-critical nature of our work, we carry significant insurance cover appropriate to every sector where we operate. This includes airfield cover, so we’re ready to comply with defence and government requirements.

If you have any questions about our accreditations, or you’d like us to complete a pre-qualification questionnaire for a project, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
