Other Testing & Remediation

Why is VOC testing important? VOCs, or volatile organic compounds, are a category of chemicals that can evaporate into the air as gases. While some VOCs may be harmless, others can have both short-term and long-term negative health effects. Testing for the presence and levels of these chemicals is essential to identify sources and mitigate any potential risks. Three common types of testing used include air testing, surface testing, and material testing. By understanding where they come from and at what concentrations they exist in respective areas, we can better protect ourselves from their harmful consequences such as headaches, dizziness, and respiratory issues.

Bacteria Testing is a procedure used to detect and measure the levels of bacteria in food, air, water, and other surfaces. It is an essential practice for keeping people healthy since some bacterial species can be responsible for serious illnesses. Bacterial Testing allows us to monitor and control the growth of potentially harmful microorganisms, enabling us to stop potential epidemics in their infancy. This kind of testing involves a range of methods such as water testing, food testing, surface testing and air sampling; all to identify different types like pathogenic, fecal and total coliforms.
