    Aylesford’s opening is in response to unprecedented growth in the South East’s infrastructure development, from major transport links to critical utilities and construction.  

    As a result, a base in Kent was necessary to ensure SOCOTEC can deliver exceptional service and technical expertise to these vital projects, providing clients with local access to the full suite of specialist services SOCOTEC offers. 

    The opening of Aylesford gives a more central space for four previous offices, to enhance cross-collaboration between multiple divisions, who now all work together under one roof, helping to provide our clients with a rounded, more integrated service.

    “Looking ahead, the Aylesford office opening positions SOCOTEC to play an even greater role in the South East's infrastructure landscape. We are excited about the opportunities this office creates to support our clients through the delivery of safer, more sustainable projects across the region.”
