CSI Are Very Excited To Be Taking Over Anchor Testing Previously Provided By Hilti.
After a busy year ‘under the pump’, Hilti has offered the provision of Anchor Testing to CSI. It is great to have our commitment to excellence recognized and we really appreciate Hilti’s offer.
This is a great opportunity to expand a service already provided by the capable CSI team, but also provide independence in testing Hilti Anchors!
The service kicks off today! (01/07/2021)

It is with great sadness we highlight several apartment tragedies in both the US and Australia.
We’ve been made aware of many issues similar to the current situation in New Zealand (evidenced by the Australian Documentary where no independent QA was being applied to construction and changes/shortcuts/poor workmanship occurring on-site which compromised design). An investigation is also ongoing on the recent Miami Apartment Disaster.
