History
Formerly the testing arm of Bodycote plc, Bodycote Testing Group was established in 1980 and grew successfully through organic and geographic expansion.
In 2008, Bodycote Testing Group was bought by Clayton, Dubilier and Rice, (CD&R), a global private equity firm whose strategy is to build on the excellent reputation in testing services and to expand the company’s sphere of influence.
Rebranded as Exova in 2009, the company continues to find success as a market leader through developing our people and expertise, select acquisitions, continuous investment in technology and facilities as well as the development of strategic partnerships.
From our headquarters in Edinburgh, Exova operates from over 130 facilities in 25 countries and employs over 4000 people.
We’re proud of our long, rich, history and we look to the future with a vision to be the number one supplier of choice in testing and advisory services.
