Tonkin & Taylor Group celebrates 50 years in 2009!


January 2009

2009 marks the 50th year of operations for the Tonkin & Taylor Group, which Chadwick Geotechnics is a part of!  The T&T Group has certainly come a long way since two engineers, working at different ends of the Auckland Harbour Bridge in New Zealand in 1959, decided to combine their expertise, experience and entrepreneurial skills!

The T&T Group continues to preserve much of the original vision to promote the company as a specialist team of employees providing high quality consultancy and laboratory testing services within the Geotechnical, Civil, Environmental and Water Resource discipline areas.  Over time this philosophy has built a strong Tonkin & Taylor brand.

“Our organisational culture has developed through effective teamwork, strong work ethics, technical expertise and superior client service” said the T&T Group’s Managing Director, Peter Millar.  “I believe this solid base will provide all the companies within the T&T Group with the essential tools to move forward throughout 2009 and into the next 50 years!”

Tim Chadwick, Chadwick Geotechnics’s Managing Director, believes that the T&T Group has had a strong influence in developing the culture within Chadwick T&T in Australia.  “We are delighted to be part of this highly regarded group of companies which operate throughout Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific, South East Asia, the Middle East and India” he said.
