Welcome
IGSL is one of Ireland’s leading ground investigation and geotechnical companies. For over 30 years, we have delivered high quality services in ground investigation, geotechnical laboratory testing and consultancy services to the construction and civil engineering industry.
Our aim is to provide independent advice and promote practical and cost effective solutions to meet our clients needs.
Our directors are well established in the geotechnical industry and a key to our success is the quality of our engineers and technicians. We invest heavily in training and development and have established strong links with leading third level institutions (UCD, Carlow IT & University of Portsmouth). Our laboratories in Naas perform testing and analysis of soils, rocks, aggregates, concrete and bituminous materials. Our materials laboratory has attained INAB accreditation for a range of tests. In addition, we provide specialist testing for suspected pyrite in underfloor fill material and sulfate attack on concrete.
