Summary of Business being acquired
Based in Poole, Dorset, ACS was formed in 1987 and for over 30 years has been providing specialist site and laboratory testing to the Building, Construction, Civil Engineering and Waste Industries. The range of materials tested include natural and recycled aggregates, fresh and hardened concretes, soils, stabilised materials, bituminous materials, natural stones and waters, through its wide scope of UKAS accredited services.
Premier’s Involvement
Premier worked with ACS for a number of years and, after completing the sale of Professional Soils Laboratory to Phenna in May 2019, recognised that combining the two businesses under the Phenna umbrella offered market, service and client synergies.
