Artelia has acquired Suffolk-based surveying practice, Castons Consulting Limited and its sister company CCAS Ltd.

Established in 1895 and headquartered in Ipswich, Castons has a long history of delivering projects throughout the East of England and has earned a distinguished reputation as the preferred consultant for cost and surveying solutions. The team includes experts in healthcare and RAAC panel surveying, aligning closely with Artelia UK’s consultancy work within the NHS. Artelia's acquisition of CCAS Ltd will further enhance its construction safety and Principal Designer service offerings to clients, especially as the new regulatory framework under the Building Safety Act comes into effect.

This acquisition follows Artelia's previous purchase of insurance reinstatement specialists Austin Newport Group in Birmingham in 2020, now operating as Artelia ANG. The acquisition of Castons represents another strategic step for Artelia in expanding its portfolio of complementary professional services businesses and extending its regional presence to provide local expertise in cost management, project management, asset management, and surveying services across the UK.
