Quality

Our UKAS accredited Quality Management System ensures that the analysis undertaken and service we provide fulfils the requirements of ISO IEC 17025:2017 and the Environment Agency’s MCERTS Performance Standard (for Soils). Please refer to our current UKAS accreditation schedule.

Quality Management is integral to our operational processes and the data provided.

Continuous development and improvement of our Quality Management System is pivotal to the continued success of our business and prominent in our business-planning model.

In addition to a comprehensive internal quality control programme we also participate in the proficiency testing schemes for all accredited methodologies and sample matrices.

Contest

Eurofins Chemtest participates in the LGC CONTEST proficiency testing scheme for contaminated land. The scheme includes a comprehensive range of analytes in soils, soil extracts and standards solutions for the analysis of metals, inorganic contaminants, organics and soil leachates.

Land contamination can pose both environmental and human health risks. The main causes of contamination are the direct discharge of industrial wastes, domestic pollution, over-usage of pesticides, oil and fuel dumping, leaching of wastes from landfills and leaking underground storage tanks which corrode over time releasing toxic substances into previously clean soils.

Participation in a proficiency testing scheme for soil, such as CONTEST, is a requirement of the UK Environment Agency’s Monitoring Certification Scheme (MCERTS) ‘Performance Standard for Laboratories Undertaking Chemical Testing of Soil’.

AIMS & AISS

As a mandatory requirement of holding UKAS accreditation for asbestos analysis (bulk ID, soil screening and ID, and quantification in soils) Eurofins Chemtest participates in the HSL proficiency testing schemes AIMS (Asbestos in Materials) and AISS (Asbestos in Soils).

The AIMS scheme is established for identification of Asbestos types in bulk materials. The AISS scheme is both a qualitative and quantitative scheme for Asbestos in Soils.
