INDOOR CONTAMINANTS
Many buildings can be contaminated with pollutants such as asbestos, SMF (synthetic mineral fibres), PAH (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons), PCB (polychlorinated biphenyls), formaldehyde, VOC (volatile organic compounds) and other substances hazardous to health.
We have sufficient experience to analyse such pollutants, draw up remedial plans, supervise the remedial work and carry out the corresponding measurements of ambient substance levels.
The required chemical analyses are performed by reliable, accredited laboratories with which we have worked for many years.
