Giatec Named Top Growing Company by The Globe and Mail

OTTAWA, Ontario, Sept. 27, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Giatec Scientific Inc. is pleased to announce it has placed No. 74 in the inaugural Report on Business ranking of Canada's Top Growing Companies. This list ranks Canadian companies on three-year revenue growth. Giatec earned its spot with a three-year growth of 705%. The recognition comes two weeks after Giatec was recognized by Canadian Business and Macleans in their 2019 Growth 500 List, ranking No. 103.

Concrete is the second most-consumed material on the planet next to water and Giatec has become the recognized world leader in concrete testing technology. Founded in 2010, Giatec has leveraged advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, including wireless concrete sensors, mobile apps, and advanced non-destructive technologies (NDT). With this technology, Giatec has helped the construction industry redefine business models and value propositions by turning concrete testing into a process which speeds up construction, rather than slow it down. As a result, its products have won numerous industry awards and have been used in over 4,200 projects worldwide, across 80 countries.
