2023 MARKS THE 33nd YEAR OF BUSINESS FOR ISE ENGINEERING.

In that time, we've grown from a small, one-room operation with two employees to our present location in the Attleboro Industrial Park with over 8,000 square feet of office, laboratories, and temperature-controlled equipment storage space. The scope and breath of our forensic examinations grows every day.
