EnviroMail 130 Australia - Method EA027
Due to increased demand in analysis for PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkylated substances), ALS is now offering NATA accredited PFAS analysis in Springvale, Melbourne specifically to service the demands of the Victorian, South Australian and Tasmanian land-remediation markets.
PFAS Analysis Capabilities
The Melbourne PFAS capability will have a strong focus on providing access to rapid, i.e. 24-hour, turnaround time requirements.
With NATA accreditation now attained, ALS Melbourne is offering the analysis of Soil, Water and Product matrices for Standard Level and Low-Level suites. The more complex Super Trace and Biota analysis will continue to be analysed by the ALS Sydney Laboratory. For a considerable length of time ALS has provided a very comprehensive PFAS testing capability in Australia and works closely with a variety of private and public organisations and authorities to provide technical and developmental support.

National Coverage – PFAS Analysis
Previously, ALS offered PFAS analysis out of Brisbane, Sydney, and Scoresby (in Melbourne) laboratories. The addition of NATA accredited PFAS analysis capabilities at the Springvale laboratory further enhances the availability of local analysis in the south east. ALS has the largest geographical footprint for this analysis in the country. Local capabilities facilitate and present opportunity for express turnaround of results for PFAS determinations.
The methodologies used across all ALS PFAS facilities are compliant with the specifications contained within the Department of Defence Quality Systems Manual 5.3 (Table B15).
