Practical people, superior soil data.
Soiltester's staff bring extensive experience in the planning, investigation and delivery of soil, geotechnical and environmental projects across Australia.
Two decades of ground experience
Our team’s experience with soil and its physical attributes has helped clients take a leading edge in the residential, civil and electrical fields. We believe our clients deserve service that’s precise, defensible and easy to act on.
Our staff’s experience covers soil thermal dynamics; construction, supply and installation of bedding material specified for soil thermal and electrical dynamics; site classification and geotechnical engineering; environmental investigations, evaluations and rehabilitation; electrical conductivity; and cathodic investigation and protection.
We’re backed by our sister laboratory, South East Soil Testing, which has been in operation for almost 20 years — giving Soiltester the depth of laboratory expertise to back up every field result.
NATA-Registered Laboratory & Patented Materials
South East Soil Testing (NATA registration No. 10602) is the only NATA-registered laboratory in South East Asia accredited to test thermal resistivity to ASTM D5334, IEEE 442 and ISO 17025. We also hold an Innovation Patent on our Thermofill® thermal backfill product, and have authored the first part of a four-part testing manual for authorities and engineers — already adopted in part by one Australian state.
Quality & Safety Management
Our laboratory’s quality management systems exceed ISO 9001 requirements, with our WHS and QA programs routinely inspected and independently audited.
Featured Project
When Wynnum Manley Leagues Club undertook an $11 million clubhouse redevelopment, our team delivered civil quality testing, geotechnical investigation, and design/installation advice for a bridge works package — reported to AS3798 and ISO 17025, to a tight reopening deadline. Read the case study →
Fields our staff work across
Improving Australia's infrastructure, cost-effectively
The goal of Soiltester is to provide services in the geotechnical, residential and environmental fields with a view to helping improve Australia's infrastructure in a cost-effective manner.
Quality
Results in the soil dynamics, environmental and geotechnical fields are only as good as the people taking the tests. We keep quality foremost in our staff's minds, and our sister laboratory is recognised for quality assurance.
Reliability
We do what we say. We're proud of our record as a stalwart testing partner — our sister company South East Soil Testing has been operating for almost 20 years.
Recognition
Our director has previously been recognised with a Sunshine Coast Environment Council award for water quality and conservation innovation in soil particle monitoring.
