VERUM construction laboratory

What VERUM construction laboratory does

VERUM construction laboratory (legal entity ТОВ «ВЕРУМ») is a Ukrainian private limited liability company founded in 2008 and headquartered in Kyiv, operating as an accredited construction materials testing and quality control laboratory. The company performs both destructive and non-destructive testing of concrete, reinforcement, soil, bricks and blocks, crushed stone, insulation, road surfaces, and welded joints, using methods including ultrasonic testing, eddy current testing (Profometer PM 8000 Pro), Schmidt hammer rebound, and visual-optical measurement, all per Ukrainian DBN and DSTU standards. It also provides engineering geological surveys for private, multi-story, and linear construction, and offers technical inspection services including post-war damage assessment under Ministry of Regional Development Order No.144 dated 06.08.2022. Since inception VERUM has executed over 100,000 tests and studies and serves construction companies, developers, and private builders across Ukraine including Kyiv, Lviv, Odessa, Ternopil, and Vinnytsia.

The company has built a differentiated technology layer on top of its physical testing services through the B&M ONLINE platform family — B&M ONLINE CONSTRUCTION (a SaaS ERP with BIM integration for construction quality control and laboratory data aggregation) and B&M ONLINE DESIGN (a SaaS integration platform linking design organizations, construction sites, and project management) — as well as VERUM.ERP for electronic executive construction documentation with digital signatures compliant with DBN A.3.1-5:2016. These software products were developed in partnership with IT firm Business Lab.

VERUM's business model is primarily fee-for-service laboratory testing priced per test, per element, or per construction unit (e.g., 840 UAH per visual weld inspection, 1,200-1,500 UAH per ultrasonic weld test, 20 UAH per cm of asphalt core, 2,580 UAH per insulation test, with contract pricing on complex jobs). A secondary subscription revenue stream exists via the B&M ONLINE SaaS platform distributed through Business Lab. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales via phone, website inquiry forms, and the client.verum.org.ua self-service portal, targeting general contractors, specialized construction firms, real estate developers, government bodies, and individual builders across Ukraine.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Intertek: Major TIC operator running construction materials testing, weld inspection, and building science labs globally. Closely matches VERUM's destructive concrete, steel, and weld testing services within a much larger industry service portfolio.
• Element Materials Technology: Global testing, inspection, and certification firm providing materials and construction materials testing across aerospace, built environment, and infrastructure. Comparable to VERUM in its lab-based construction materials testing, but operates at vastly larger scale and across many geographies.
• Bureau Veritas: Global TIC group with a strong construction and infrastructure practice covering materials testing, welding inspection, and geotechnical services. Directly comparable to VERUM in its construction QA service line, but as part of a much broader certification and asset integrity portfolio.
• TÜV SÜD: German-based TIC provider with construction materials, infrastructure, and welding inspection labs across Europe and Asia. Comparable to VERUM in regulatory-driven construction testing, but with established pan-European accreditation frameworks.
• SGS: World-leading TIC (testing, inspection, certification) provider with an extensive construction materials and geotechnical testing practice. Overlaps directly with VERUM's destructive and non-destructive testing, geological surveys, and on-site QA, but serves a global multinational customer base.

Emerging players

• Exponent: Engineering and scientific consulting firm that operates testing labs and provides failure analysis, building envelope, and construction defect services. Comparable to VERUM in technical survey and structural expertise work, though primarily expert-driven rather than high-volume field lab services.

Direct peers

• ALS Global: International network of materials testing and environmental labs with strong construction materials and geotechnical offerings. Closely comparable business model to VERUM's lab-plus-onsite quality control services across concrete, soil, and aggregates.
• Applus+ (Applus Services): Spain-headquartered TIC group with a dedicated Construction and Industrial division covering non-destructive testing, welding inspection, and materials testing. Direct functional overlap with VERUM's ultrasonic weld testing and concrete quality control services.
