Microbiological Testing

Water hygiene and microbiological control are essential for safeguarding health and maintaining regulatory compliance across a wide range of environments. From leisure facilities and schools to healthcare sites and shipping vessels, microbiological testing verifies that water systems remain safe, clean, and free from harmful pathogens such as Legionella and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

As a UKAS-accredited testing laboratory (No. 1227), Envirochem provides comprehensive microbiological testing and analysis services, underpinned by decades of experience in environmental compliance, chemical testing, and occupational hygiene.
