Local Laboratory Asbestos Testing

Based in East Anglia

Situated within our Norwich office is a fully-equipped laboratory that can scrutinise potentially hazardous material samples, confirming asbestos’s presence.

Our fully-equipped laboratory has the capability to analyse samples of any suspect material and confirm the presence of asbestos. Both the laboratory itself and the procedures we employ there are accredited by UKAS to ISO17025, samples are inspected using a stereo microscope to identify any fibres which are then analysed in more detail utilising polarised light microscopy to scientifically proof which type(s) of asbestos, if any, are present in the material.

Samples must be delivered safely, feel free to call us to discuss prior to dropping any samples off, or to obtain a cost for us to take the sample for you.
