Why SGS for PFAS Analysis?
- Capacity: We have invested heavily in capacity and geographical coverage (10+ labs) and can offer 1–3 day turnaround options for screening level methods, and in some cases, fully determinative methods such as EPA 1633A.
- Support: We support every matrix from simple drinking water to complex spent media, tissue, serum and products.
- Expertise: We have been measuring emerging contaminants since the 1970s, PFAS since 2003 and have shaped PFAS best practices on storage, stability, sampling, interferences and more. Our leadership resulted in SGS authorship/validation of EPA 1633.
- Accreditation: Our dedicated North America-wide accreditation team plays a pivotal role in ensuring our continuous PFAS compliance is up to date with the latest accreditations, regulations, and industry standards.
- Network: Our nationwide (and global) network means you can leave the sampling supplies and sample delivery logistics to us and focus on your project.
- Innovation: We were one of the first networks in the DoD PFAS program and continue our long-standing support of DoD PFAS cleanup effort with industry leading data quality and TAT.
