Update to drinking water pesticides and herbicides offering
ALS Environmental have taken the decision to refine our current pesticide and herbicide offering on drinking waters. We experienced a number of challenges with our Drinking Water Pesticide analysis in 2016 which resulted in delays and cancellations to samples. We have taken the opportunity to review the analytical parameters in each of our Pesticide suites to improve the resilience and quality of the data that we produce.
Since opening the Wakefield laboratory in 2010 we have increased our standard range of pesticides. These methods and additional tests have been developed to meet customer demands as new pesticides have been required. During the review we have ascertained which pesticides are now the most commonly requested with the aim of rationalising our suites and removing historical compounds that are generally no longer required. Please see below for the list of the updated analytical suites and also a list of the parameters which will be removed from 30th January 2017.

By tailoring our offering to meet our customer requirements, we aim to increase laboratory efficiencies and improve service levels for our core pesticide methods.

Testimonials
We had potential water quality problem due to the actions of a third party and needed samples taken as a matter of urgency. Although this was outside the strict terms of our contract with ALS they were able to provide a sampler on a Friday afternoon, get the samples taken and returned to their labs for analysis.
They backed this excellent performance up by emailing us the sample results over the weekend. All in all a great piece of customer service!
