State of the art field sampling techniques and laboratory procedures allow Southern Water Scientific Services to offer what it says is a superior service in the area of brownfield investigation and analysis.
"Our expertise in water sampling, which is applied to drinking water, wastewater and sludge analysis, is rapidly finding favour in the contaminated land sector" explains laboratory commercial team manager Rob Fuller.
Accurate site sampling should form a critical part of all surveys and investigations, according to Fuller.
Without the correct information prior to clean up, either the remediation is unlikely to be completely effective or there will be a cost over-run.
Using its own team of scientists and specially adapted all-terrain vehicles, Southern Water Scientific Services carry out their own site sampling for a client, prior to conducting the laboratory analysis.
