PFAS Testing Service
PFAS chemicals are used in a multitude of products that we use every day, these products can include non stick pans, fast food packaging, paper plates, paper cups, cleaning products, waterproof clothing and much more.
​
PFAS have been linked to many diseases including various forms of cancer, liver damage, hypertension and lowered immune system.
​
PFAS have been called "Forever Compounds", this is due to their chemical nature, which means they break down incredibly slowly in the environment.
​
The 2019 Movie "Dark Waters" increased awareness of these toxic, forever chemicals.
​
