Construction Sciences: 40 Years of Continuous Accreditation
NATA team

A company proud of their Queensland heritage, Construction Sciences began as Bowler Geotechnical with a laboratory based in Brisbane to provide construction materials testing and geotechnical support for engineering clients in response to the city’s rapid building growth phase. A strong commitment to prompt turnarounds of accurate test results, and an increasing scope of testing services led to a continuous expansion in regional Queensland and interstate through a follow the client, growth orientated business model. 

Construction Sciences is one of Australia’s largest construction materials testing firm, with more than 50 NATA accredited base laboratories and annex laboratory facilities nationwide. The Brisbane South Laboratory is one of the largest CMT labs in Australia, and provides geotechnical testing for soils, aggregates, and concrete, and conducts specialised foamed bitumen mixes and concrete mix trials for design clients. 

Construction Sciences, a Kiwa company, recognises that NATA’s independent accreditation of laboratories is an extra assurance of trust and integrity for clients and suppliers supporting Australia’s construction and engineering sectors. Kiwa, a global provider of Testing, Inspection, and Certification (TIC) with advanced testing laboratories of its own, understands the value of accreditation, and proactively reinforces a culture of quality and continuous improvement that has shaped their reputation as a trusted partner in the industry. 

Accreditation underpins the quality and accuracy they deliver on every project. Construction Sciences’ technical training, equipment resources, custom built laboratory information management software and quality reporting assures clients that results are reliable, consistent, and technically sound, enabling critical infrastructure decisions to be made with confidence. 

Congratulations to Construction Services on this milestone.
