Unrivaled PFAS expertise across industries and matrices

From one-time PFAS testing events to multiyear, multi-phase site assessment and remediation (SAR) contracts, we support projects with proactive planning, accurate compliance and regulatory reporting, and dedicated client services.

In anticipation of an expanding list of regulated analytes and lower testing limits, our national expertise in PFAS analytical services, backed by our global research and innovation teams, helps ensures fast turnaround times and quality reporting for PFAS compliance testing.

Unrivaled PFAS expertise across industries and matrices

Emerging contaminants testing and risk assessment

• Industrial and manufacturing facilities – Ensuring EPA and state compliance on PFAS in process effluents and wastewater discharges
• Airports and military bases – Monitoring PFAS from AFFF firefighting foam, with PFAS remediation strategies and technologies for long-term site management
• Construction and infrastructure projects – environmental impact assessments of PFAS analytes in numerous solids and aqueous matrices
• Drinking water and wastewater treatment plants – assisting our clients with ground and surface water monitoring strategies and discharge compliance programs
• Landfills and waste management – identifying PFAS leachability risks and supporting landfill closure planning
• Mining operations – evaluating PFAS contamination risks in water extraction and waste management
• Environmental cleanup/superfund programs – remediation support includes soil and sediment studies, bioaccumulation studies in fish, wildlife, and plant tissue samples, as well as groundwater and surface water studies
