GDS Instruments Timeline
Here at GDS, we are entering our 38th year of business. We thought this would be a good opportunity to reflect on some of our key moments throughout the years and outline our vision for 2016. We have produced a company timeline, to highlight some of these dates over the past decades, see below.

Looking forward in 2016, we will be launching our Acoustic Velocity and Acoustic Emission transducers to complement our expanding range of rock mechanic systems. With our range of 2MN/100MPa systems with optional temperature control, GDS is becoming known for more than being a world leader in testing products for soil mechanics. Recent rock mechanics and advanced material test system developments, have pushed our frontiers wider than ever into the materials testing world.
