PFAS Resource Center
Your Comprehensive Resource for PFAS Testing, Water Quality & Environmental Compliance
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have become one of the most significant
environmental and public health topics affecting municipalities, manufacturers, utilities,
healthcare organizations, environmental consultants, commercial facilities, and industrial
operations throughout the United States. As scientific understanding continues to evolve,
organizations increasingly require dependable information, reliable laboratory testing, and
experienced scientific partners to help evaluate water quality, environmental conditions, and
potential PFAS contamination.
Because PFAS compounds have been used in thousands of commercial and industrial
applications for decades, organizations across nearly every industry are seeking practical
guidance on PFAS testing, analytical methodologies, contamination investigations, water quality
management, and long-term environmental stewardship..

What Are PFAS?
PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) are a large family of synthetic chemicals that have
been widely used because of their unique chemical properties, including resistance to heat,
grease, oil, water, and chemical degradation.
Historically, PFAS have been incorporated into numerous products and industrial applications,
including:
- Firefighting foams
- Industrial manufacturing
- Metal finishing operations
- Non-stick coatings
- Water-resistant textiles
- Food packaging
- Electronics manufacturing
- Chemical processing
- Aerospace applications
- Consumer products
Because these compounds degrade very slowly, they have become an important focus of environmental research and water quality monitoring worldwide.
Why PFAS Matter
Growing scientific awareness has increased interest in understanding the presence of PFAS
within water systems, industrial facilities, manufacturing operations, and environmental
resources.
Organizations increasingly perform PFAS investigations to:
- Better understand water quality
- Evaluate environmental conditions
- Support sustainability initiatives
- Investigate potential contamination
- Improve environmental awareness
- Strengthen water management programs
- Support operational planning
- Improve risk awareness
- Support infrastructure decisions
- Strengthen environmental stewardship
Reliable laboratory testing provides valuable scientific information supporting these objectives.

PFAS Water Testing
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have emerged as one of the most critical environmental and public health concerns worldwide. Often referred to as “forever chemicals,” PFAS compounds are highly persistent, resistant to degradation, and capable of accumulating in water systems, soil, and the human body over time.

Drinking Water Contaminant Analysis
Drinking water is one of the most critical resources for public health, and even trace levels of contaminants can pose serious risks. Contamination may originate from natural sources, industrial activities, aging infrastructure, or environmental exposure, making regular and precise testing essential.

Heavy Metal Testing
Heavy metals such as lead (Pb), arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), and mercury (Hg) are among the most critical contaminants monitored across industries including food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, medical devices, and environmental systems.

Water Testing
Drinking water quality directly impacts public health, industrial operations, and regulatory compliance. Whether supplied through municipal systems, private wells, or industrial infrastructure, water must meet strict safety standards to ensure it is free from harmful contaminants.
