ETS Geotechnical (ETS Geo) has established itself as a formidable player in the geotechnical investigations and testing industry, renowned for its personalised service, knowledgeable engineers, and extensive experience across diverse terrains.
With its head office based in Cairns, ETS Geo has recently expanded its operations with a new facility in Townsville, managed by the seasoned Don Byers. This expansion marks a significant milestone in the company’s mission to provide exceptional geotechnical solutions across North Queensland.
“The new Townsville facility is a testament to our commitment to meeting the growing demands of our clients in the region. Don brings invaluable expertise to our team, ensuring that we continue to deliver top-notch services,” says Michael Ganza, Director and driving force behind ETS Geo.
The company’s core services include comprehensive geotechnical investigations, sub-surface exploration, and construction material testing. ETS Geo’s capabilities extend to geotechnical drilling, which is crucial for assessing soil and rock properties to inform construction projects. This drilling capability, combined with the company’s commitment to accuracy and efficiency, sets ETS Geo apart from its competitors.
“We pride ourselves on our ability to handle complex projects, whether in urban settings or remote locations,” Michael notes. “Our team is equipped with the latest technology and expertise to provide reliable data and solutions, ensuring the success of our clients’ projects.”
In addition to its robust geotechnical services, ETS Geo’s sister company, Australian Ground Engineering (AGE Qld), offers specialised design and construction services.
AGE Qld’s portfolio includes retaining walls, soil nails, soil anchors, micro piles, rock dowels, rock fall mesh, catch fences, and catch drains. These services are essential for stabilising slopes, protecting infrastructure, and mitigating geological hazards.
“The integration of AGE Qld’s services with ETS Geo’s investigative capabilities allows us to provide comprehensive solutions from investigation to construction,” Michael explains. “This synergy enhances our ability to deliver cost-effective and timely results for our clients.”
The expansion into Townsville and the collaboration with AGE Qld underscores ETS Geo’s dedication to growth and innovation. By leveraging local knowledge and advanced techniques, the company continues to build a reputation for excellence in the geotechnical field.
As ETS Geo looks to the future, the focus remains on expanding its reach and enhancing service offerings. “Our goal is to inspire others in the industry by setting high standards for quality and customer satisfaction,” Michael concludes. “We are excited about the opportunities ahead and are committed to making a positive impact in the communities we serve.”
With a steadfast commitment to excellence and a clear vision for the future, ETS Geotechnical is poised to lead the way in geotechnical investigations and testing, ensuring safe and successful construction projects across North Queensland.
