What 3D Test Solutions BV does

3D Test Solutions BV (3DTS) is a Dutch independent non-destructive testing (NDT) and quality control agency headquartered at Toermalijnring 320, Dordrecht, Netherlands, founded in 2018. The firm delivers a full suite of NDT techniques — visual, dye penetrant, magnetic, ultrasonic, eddy current, ultrasonic phased array, and time-of-flight diffraction — alongside advanced services such as 3D scanning, ACFM, topdrive shaft inspection, CIMS FRP inspection, and slew bearing ring inspection. It complements these services with access solutions (certified drone pilots and rope access) that enable non-invasive testing on operational assets in hazardous or confined environments, and operates a project-based R&D function using 3D modeling, a 4-axis CNC, a laser cutter, and 3D printers to develop bespoke solutions for non-standard inspection problems.

The company sells to enterprise industrial buyers across five verticals — Maritime, Offshore, Oil & Gas, Infra & Steel, and general Industry — through a direct, sales-led B2B motion with project-based custom pricing. Revenue is predominantly professional-services driven, supplemented by Qc linQ, a QR-code-based quality control tracking SaaS product that provides real-time traceability across fabrication chains. Its market access is gated by an extensive certification portfolio (DNV AOSS, ABS ESP Hull Gauging, ClassNK, RINA SSU, Bureau Veritas RTD0, RIT, RT, TG, ISO 9001, VCA2), most valid through 2027–2028, and by NDT Level 3 specialists who can sign off on regulated inspection work.

The firm claims worldwide service capability from a 19-person team, indicating project-based cross-border delivery rather than a multinational office footprint. No funding rounds, acquisitions, parent entities, or public-company indicators are disclosed; the entity is a privately held Dutch B.V. (CoC 61331562).

Broad incumbents

• SGS: World's largest TIC company offering industrial inspection, NDT, and asset integrity services globally. Comparable as a broad incumbent competing for similar B2B industrial QA contracts.
• Intertek: Global TIC incumbent providing inspection and quality assurance across oil & gas, marine, and industrial markets. Overlaps with 3DTS in industrial NDT but operates at significantly larger scale and breadth.
• Bureau Veritas: Major TIC incumbent operating across marine, offshore, oil & gas, and infrastructure. Bureau Veritas both issues certifications that 3DTS holds and competes in industrial NDT inspection, making it a benchmark peer with broader scope.
• DNV: Classification society and TIC incumbent serving maritime, oil & gas, and energy. Like Bureau Veritas, DNV both certifies 3DTS and runs its own inspection services, representing the largest incumbents in 3DTS's served markets.
• TÜV Rheinland: German-based TIC incumbent with industrial services including NDT and asset integrity across energy, infrastructure, and maritime — comparable at the incumbent level with similar regulatory credibility.
• RINA: Italian classification society providing certification, marine, and energy inspection services. Both a certification issuer for 3DTS (RINA SSU/RINA certs held) and a competitor in industrial inspection markets.

Direct peers

• TEAM Inc. Provider of specialty industrial services including NDT, inspection, and asset integrity to refining, chemical, and power markets — comparable service mix to 3DTS, focused on industrial inspection rather than consumer testing.
• Mistras Group: Pure-play NDT services provider offering ultrasonic, eddy current, phased array, ACFM, and advanced inspection to oil & gas, aerospace, and infrastructure — the closest direct competitor in NDT technique breadth and target customers.
• Acuren: North American NDT specialist serving oil & gas, petrochemical, and power with ultrasonic, radiographic, and advanced techniques; comparable as a focused NDT services peer to industrial asset owners.
• Applus+: Global testing, inspection and certification (TIC) company with a dedicated Energy & Industry division providing NDT, QA/QC, and asset integrity services to oil & gas, power, and infrastructure — directly overlapping 3DTS's core service portfolio across multiple verticals.
