Trust & Tech: Building Tomorrow's World
on Expertise and Innovation
Our world is rapidly evolving, and two elements stand at the core of creating resilient, sustainable built environments and infrastructure: unwavering TRUST and cutting-edge TECHNOLOGY.
At SOCOTEC, our Trust & Tech initiative represents our commitment to combining these essential pillars to safeguard the buildings and infrastructure that form the backbone of our communities.
TRUST - The Cornerstone of Everything We Build
At SOCOTEC, trust is our foundation. Our experts serve as guardians of public safety, providing the trustworthy engineering and consulting services that ensure the integrity of the built assets. When you enter a building, cross a bridge, or drive on a highway, you place your implicit trust in these structures. Our mission is to honor and strengthen that trust.
In many ways, we serve as caretakers of a profound social contract: the promise that you can walk through cities, work in buildings, and use infrastructure with confidence that these structures will perform as intended. This represents the essence of our business.
Through rigorous Testing, Inspection, and Certification (TIC) services, we establish the trustworthiness of structures that millions rely on daily. Our work enables
Safety and risk management
that protects communities
Regulatory compliance
that ensures adherence to building codes and standards
Quality assurance
that builds confidence in construction methods and materials.
Long-term performance
validation that structures will function as expected over decades.

Where Trust Meets Technology
The true strength of our approach lies in the seamless integration of human expertise with technological innovation. Our engineers, inspectors, and consultants leverage advanced tools to enhance their capabilities, not replace them. This synergy allows us to:
- Provide more accurate assessments of building and infrastructure conditions
- Offer comprehensive consulting on complex projects
- Implement continuous monitoring systems that track performance over time
- Deliver insights that enhance resilience against evolving challenges
The data we collect and analyze is the foundation for trustworthy decisions that impact millions of lives. By combining human judgment with technological precision, we create solutions that address both immediate concerns and long-term objectives.
