PERFLUORINATED COMPOUND TESTING SERVICES
FOR CLIENTS NATIONWIDE
At Engineering Performance Solutions, we are proud to be able to offer high-quality perfluorinated compound testing services for consulting firms, engineering firms, utility companies, and other vendors nationwide.
Perfluorinated compounds and per-fluoroalkyl substances are chemicals that are commonly used in a lot of outdoor equipment, activewear, non-stick cooking supplies, and even building materials. This compound is known for adding the water-repellent and stain-resistant properties that often attract us to certain types of outdoor equipment.
While this compound may have convenient benefits, it has also been proven to be dangerous for our health. Unfortunately, this compound is now not only being found in products, but it is sometimes even being found in water. However, the team at Engineering Performance Solutions can help ensure that your water is clean and free of perfluorinated compounds with our testing services. Our team will work diligently and carefully to test your water to ensure that it is safe to drink.
Let our trained, professional team provide perfluorinated and per-fluoroalkyl substance testing services for your company. Contact us today to learn more about our work or to schedule a PFOA testing service!
PER-FLUOROALKYL SUBSTANCES TESTING
Engineering Performance Solutions offers per-fluoroalkyl substances testing as part of our perfluorinated compound testing services. These substances are chemicals that are water-repellent and stain resistant, making them useful for many different products you can find for sale. However, because this substance is a chemical, it does have harmful properties and should not be something we should find in our drinking water. To help keep your drinking water clean and safe for use, Engineering Performance Solutions will test for per-fluoroalkyl substances and other perfluorinated compounds.
Engineering Performance Solutions is committed to ensuring clean drinking water through high-quality testing services. We provide perfluorinated compound testing services for utility companies, consulting firms, engineering clients, and other vendors that provide water. These testing services will ensure your water is free of per-fluoroalkyl substances and other harmful compounds.
CONTACT US TODAY FOR PER-FLUOROALKYL TESTING
Many everyday products use per-fluoroalkyl substances to help them better stand up to water and stains. While these substances help improve the performance of these products, their properties do not degrade easily, resulting in regular exposure to people. Per-fluoroalkyl substances can find their way into drinking water, increasing the risk of people ingesting water with elevated chemical levels. What Engineering Performance Solutions can do is test for per-fluoroalkyl substances and other chemicals in your water, helping to ensure cleaner drinking water.
Our quality testing services are handled by trained professionals who are well versed in clean drinking water testing services. We know how to spot per-fluoroalkyl substances and remove them from your water.
If you have questions or concerns about per-fluoroalkyl testing, please get in touch with a member of our staff today. Our team would be happy to explain the testing process to you and make you aware of the benefits testing your water. Call us today!
ACCURATE PFOA TESTING
Water is indispensable in our daily routines, serving a multitude of purposes from hydration and hygiene to recreational activities. It’s not only vital for individual households but also for public entities such as local governments and various organizations. However, the integrity of both private and public water systems is at risk due to the infiltration of hazardous synthetic compounds, introduced by chemical manufacturers in the mid-20th century. These substances are prevalent in numerous consumer goods, ranging from food packaging and paper product coatings to household textiles and nonstick kitchenware.
The widespread use of PFAS, known for their robust oil, water, and stain repelling properties, is particularly concerning. These persistent chemicals pose a significant environmental challenge as they resist natural degradation. Consequently, when discharged into aquatic ecosystems, including rivers, lakes, and ultimately groundwater, PFAS have the potential to build up to harmful concentrations over time.
CONTACT US TODAY FOR PFAS TESTING
For years, Engineering Performance Solutions has consistently delivered top-tier PFOA testing services to clientele across various industries in the United States. Serving entities from local governmental bodies and municipal departments to engineering consultancies and pharmaceutical laboratories, our accredited professionals are equipped with the necessary skills and state-of-the-art apparatus to conduct comprehensive testing for per-fluoroalkyl substances and polyfluoroalkyl substances, ensuring the highest standards of quality and reliability.
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) testing is a critical process in environmental and health safety due to the persistent nature of PFOA and related per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). These chemicals, often referred to as ‘forever chemicals’, have been widely used for their resistance to heat, water, and oil, particularly in non-stick cookware, stain-resistant fabrics, and some firefighting foams. However, their stability means they do not break down easily in the environment or the human body, leading to potential health risks such as cancer and liver damage. Testing for PFOA involves analyzing soil, water, and other products using advanced technology to detect the presence of these substances at levels as low as parts per trillion.
Recent developments include the launch of consumer-initiated blood tests with physician consultation, allowing individuals at risk of high exposure to assess their PFAS levels and discuss the implications with a healthcare professional. Moreover, toxicity assessments provide hazard identification and derive toxicity values to guide safety standards and regulatory measures.
As awareness of the dangers of PFAS grows, the importance of accurate PFOA testing and the development of new methodologies to assess exposure and risk cannot be overstated. For information about our water testing and analysis services or to schedule a test, we encourage you to contact us today!
