Igne

Igne was formed in 2023, bringing together six leading UK businesses in ground investigation, materials testing, UXO mitigation, specialist drilling, surveys, and geo-environmental services. With over 350 years of combined experience, Igne provides an end-to-end service for pre- and post-construction phases, offering strength and breadth across six core service categories: ground investigation, testing, unexploded ordnance, water wells, geothermal, and geo-environmental. The company's services support an entire project's lifecycle, whether stand-alone or fully integrated, with the scale and reach to deliver nationwide.

Clients benefit from a single supplier for integrated service delivery, built on efficiency, sustainability, and reliability. Quality, health, safety, and environmental standards are central to Igne's operations, reinforced by industry-leading accreditations and recognised supplier approvals. Igne's geo-environmental services de-risk client projects by providing a thorough understanding of ground conditions, ensuring deadlines and budgets are protected.

Services include land contamination risk management, preliminary and quantitative risk assessments, remediation options appraisal, strategy development, and verification reporting. They also offer coal mining risk assessments, topographic surveys, utility surveys, foundation and pavement design parameters, ecological appraisals, archaeological surveys, landfill monitoring, and slope stability assessments. Sustainability is embedded in Igne's operations, with a commitment to reducing environmental impact, delivering social value, and maintaining strong governance.

Key milestones include PAS 2080 accreditation, Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) approval, and alignment with UN Sustainable Development Goals. The company focuses on reducing emissions, improving efficiency, and embedding carbon management, while also prioritising workforce wellbeing, diversity, and community engagement.
