From humble beginnings of two, to multiple faciltiies with 60 plus staff.
Why we founded Ground Science
Ground Science was established in 2003 when two directors Ernst Gmehling and Chris Senserrick saw the need for a high value, fast testing service for the construction and turf industries . We also saw a need for a company capable of providing a broad range of engineering services and skills to the diverse range of clientele. The growth of the company is a testament to the quality of service provided and the technical skills and experience of the staff.
Ground Science is widely accepted as a innovative consultancy across a variety of fields. We are seen as Australia’s premier sports field testing facility, with projects performed Australia wide, throughout Asia and the Middle East. Our attention to detail is what makes all of our disciplines stand out from the rest.
Recent Sports field projects include design testing for the upgrade of the Hong Kong Soccer stadium, design and QA testing for the new Eastern golf course at Lilydale, Eagle farm race track upgrade, Townsville Turf club track upgrade, Greyhound Racing Victoria’s Traralgon track upgrade, AFL standard training facilities and numerous sporting facilities around the country and overseas.
