Paint Chip Sampling for Lead

Paint chip sampling plays a crucial role in testing and assurance by capturing and quantifying lead levels from paint chips present on different substrates. This method helps assess whether the detected lead levels indicate a potential lead problem, particularly before renovations or abatement activities. By determining the specific amount of lead manufactured into the paint, paint chip sampling provides a clear and accurate assessment of lead hazards.

Dust Wipe Clearance Testing

If you're planning any project that may disrupt lead-containing material, such as removing walls, repainting or repairing surfaces, it's crucial to have the area tested for lead to protect your safety and comply with government regulations. Lead dust cleaning plays a vital role in ensuring a safe environment by effectively removing harmful lead particles that can be released during such activities.

These microscopic particles can pose significant health risks, especially to children and pregnant women, leading to serious health issues, such as cognitive impairment and developmental delays. By thoroughly cleaning lead dust and adhering to proper safety protocols, you help safeguard the well-being of occupants and workers, ensuring your project meets all necessary safety and compliance standards.
