GEOTRON is proud of its 5 Year Anniversary (G5) and celebrated this milestone at Norwest and Gosford in December 2020.

”We are very excited of our achievement of 5 years in business. Having started in 2015 in our 3x3m home office in Western Sydney.

We have progressively relocated within North West Sydney to meet our expansion needs. With increased demand we added a shared office space in Barangaroo Sydney CBD. As our business continued to grow, in 2019 we expanded to the Central Coast New South Wales, 

And in 2020 we relocated our head office to the recently completed The Esplanade building in Norwest Business Park, Sydney.

Our journey to date has given us the opportunity to deliver structural engineering services throughout Australia, including Sydney, ACT, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Darwin and Brisbane.

Also internationally to the Philippines and the Solomon Islands.

Our growth and expansion is the result of the support and trust that all our clients have bestowed upon us, and the technical skill and dedication of all our staff members.

I sincerely thank all our clients for their custom over these 5 years and our great team at GEOTRON for being part of this milestone.

We look forward to continuing and growing our client and team relationships into the future, as we all strive to achieve a better built environment.” by Peter Geoghegan, Founder & Managing Director.
