We are the market leader.
We are the market leader providing cost effective compliance assurance to your business and we continue to advance our capabilities. A technician-based company using technology to manage data, we are constantly challenging the status in order to minimise process complexity and optimise facility management performance.
Using a powerful proprietary database, our services are efficiently managed and test records are available online. This reduces service costs whilst enhancing the accuracy and quality of the Testel service delivery.
Why We Matter
More than just tagging, safety has become an essential feature of good corporate business in both Australia and New Zealand. Electricians sometimes joke there are no old electricians that are bad at their job. Electrical complacency is unforgiving and electrical safety is no joking matter. Ensure your staff are safe from electrical hazards and risk.
Founded as a safety testing service provider, we continue to build and expand on our potential by improving delivery of emergency services, thermal imaging, fire testing and emergency / exit testing. We manage 2,000 companies and their 25,000 sites assist them to unlock their capabilities to increase their facility management performance.
