Sir Steve Redgrave launches Environmental Scientifics Group New gold standard for Environmental Compliance

Environmental Scientifics Group, to be commonly known as ESG, is the new name

for the combined expertise of Scientifics and the Environmental Services Group

encompassing leading brands such as Soil Mechanics, TES Bretby, PMC and CL

Voelker.


The group of companies, initially brought together by Inspicio (a world leading

testing and inspection services company), offer a complete solution for all

legislative and regulatory environmental compliance from the ground up.

Operating in diverse areas such as Geotechnical and Energy testing,

Environmental Safely Compliance and Laboratories and Analytical services, the

companies share the common theme of being leading independent experts in their

respective fields.


With a history dating back more than 100 years, and with more than 1000

employees working in 26 offices nationwide, the ESG group is to be formally

launched today by Sir Steve Redgrave at the Churchill War Rooms, London.


The launch, 'The New Gold Standard,' signals the development of a new framework

that will make it easier for customers to use ESG's diverse range of services.

The businesses will work together 'as one' for the benefit of clients, rather

than as a collection of individual business units. The launch also demonstrates

ESG's strong commitment to customer service and continued investment to achieve

excellence. The brands, Soil Mechanics, Scientifics, TES Bretby, PMC and CL

Voelker, well known and respected in their respective sectors, will remain.


ESG provides expert test, analysis and advice that is UKAS accredited and fully

industry and legislatively compliant, providing customers with a high quality

and timely service that can be trusted. The group's employees are experts in

their field, and are noted for the very high quality of customer service they

provide.


Alex Sleeth, CEO, ESG said: "Business mirrors sport in many areas and Sir Steve

Redgrave has personally, over his career, achieved all we have set out to do in

our business. The drive and dedication to hard work that Sir Steve demonstrated

was essential to achieving his goals. Like Sir Steve, we are committed to being

the best in our field and are prepared to invest the resource and energy to

ensure we achieve that goal".


"Our aim with ESG is to have a business which works in partnership with our

customers to provide a total solution across a unique range of environmental

inspection, testing and consultancy services. We pride ourselves on the levels

of accreditation standards the businesses hold which ensure our standards are at

the forefront of our industry."
