Environmental Testing

Analytical Chemistry

In Addition, to conventional test methods, our laboratories utilize advanced analytical instruments like ion chromatographs, UV VIS spectrophotometers, TOC analyzers, Kjeldahl Analyzers, Bomb Calorimeters, among many others.

The following are our key testing capabilities:
