Technical expertise since 1983

A single competence is not enough to solve complex problems.

For over forty years IAT has combined engineering, safety, testing, radiation protection, environment and applied research. A multidisciplinary approach that supports companies and organisations from risk assessment to design, from compliance to operation.

We close the gap between regulatory requirement and technical solution.
