Air Quality / Exposure Monitoring
Breathing Air Quality Testing
Ambient Air Quality Surveys
Bioaerosol Monitoring
We have considerable experience in the field of air quality monitoring and assessment.
Our staff are qualified to undertake COSHH compliance monitoring and assessment, and can provide the following services:
Determination – of employee exposure to airborne contaminants
Measurement – of ambient levels of airborne contaminants
Pinpointing – hot spots and assessing significant sources of contaminants
Evaluation – of potential risk to human health
Assessment – of efficiency of engineering (local exhaust ventilation) and process control measures
Investigation – of specific air quality issues or concerns
All hazardous substances must be assessed for risk to human health.
Monitoring of airborne substances is required where:
There could be serious risk to health if control measures failed or deteriorated
Exposure limits may be exceeded
Control measures might not be working efficiently
Using a combination of traditional analytical and real-time instrumental monitoring techniques, we can compare personal exposures with both long and short-term exposure limits as specified in HSE, ACGHIH, OSHA, NIOSH publications.
From this we can assess the level of compliance with COSHH. Our state-of-the-art equipment allows us to measure:
Total inhalable, thoracic and respirable dust
DEEE’s (diesel engine exhaust emissions)
Lead or other heavy metals
Respirable fibre
Acid mists
Combustion gases
Explosive gases
Organic vapours
Bacterial loading (airborne microbes)
Our interpretive reports not only discuss the findings from monitoring and thorough site observations but give full recommendations on remedial actions where required. Should we encounter any air quality issues on site, we are confident that we can offer a sensible and practical solution, every time.
