What they do

Their core work

Integrity NDT is a Turkish engineering SME specialising in non-destructive testing (NDT) of industrial storage infrastructure — specifically above-ground and underground tanks used in the petrochemical and fuel distribution sectors. Their core capability is applying NDT methods to detect structural defects, corrosion, and leaks in tanks without taking them out of service, which reduces downtime and avoids environmental incidents. In H2020 they contributed both as a technology partner (robotic in-service inspection of petrochemical tanks) and as a project coordinator (a risk mitigation monitoring system for underground fuel station tanks). Their work sits at the intersection of industrial inspection engineering, sensor integration, and safety compliance.

Evolution & trajectory

How they've shifted over time

Early focus
Robotic petrochemical tank inspection
Recent focus
Underground fuel tank risk monitoring

Integrity NDT's H2020 participation spans 2016 to 2020 and covers a consistent, tightly focused theme: NDT inspection of industrial tanks. Their earlier involvement (TankRob, 2016) was as a partner in a larger consortium delivering robotic inspection technology for petrochemical tanks. By 2017 they stepped up to lead MoniTank, shifting from implementation partner to project coordinator responsible for a risk monitoring system targeting the petrol retail sector. The overall direction is one of deepening specialisation within the same niche rather than broadening into new domains — moving from contributing technical expertise to owning and leading the full solution.

They are maturing from NDT technology contributor toward solution ownership and project leadership, suggesting they are building capacity to anchor future consortia in industrial tank safety and monitoring.

Collaboration profile

How they like to work

Role: consortium_leaderReach: European4 countries collaborated

Integrity NDT has experience on both sides of consortium leadership — once as partner, once as coordinator — which is unusual for a small SME with only two projects. Their consortia are compact (averaging around 4-5 partners given 7 unique partners across 2 projects), suggesting they prefer lean, technically focused teams over broad multi-stakeholder structures. Working with them likely means engaging a hands-on technical SME that brings domain-specific inspection expertise and is comfortable carrying project management responsibility.

Integrity NDT has worked with 7 unique partners across 4 countries, a modest but internationally diverse network for a 2-project SME. Their geographic footprint extends beyond Turkey into at least three other European or associated countries, consistent with their role in EU-funded Innovation Actions.

Why partner with them

What sets them apart

Integrity NDT occupies a rare niche: a Turkish SME with hands-on NDT engineering capability and demonstrated EU project coordination experience in industrial tank inspection — a safety-critical domain with strong regulatory demand across Europe and the Middle East. Most NDT players in H2020 are large industrial firms or research institutes; Integrity NDT offers the agility of a specialist SME with the credibility of having both led and delivered Innovation Actions. For consortia targeting the energy infrastructure or fuel distribution sectors, they bring practical field-testing capability from a country with a large and growing petrochemical industry.

Notable projects

Highlights from their portfolio

  • MoniTank
    Integrity NDT served as project coordinator — a significant responsibility for a small SME — developing a risk mitigation monitoring system for underground fuel station tanks, demonstrating full project ownership beyond technical contribution.
  • TankRob
    The largest funded project (EUR 481,946) addressed robotic in-service NDT of petrochemical storage infrastructure, placing Integrity NDT inside a cross-national consortium tackling a high-value industrial safety challenge.

Analysis note: Only 2 projects with minimal metadata (no keywords, no sector tags). Profile is coherent because both projects are thematically identical and the organisation name confirms the NDT specialisation, but claims about internal capabilities and team size cannot be verified from available data. Treat collaboration style and network inferences as indicative, not confirmed.
