Water Testing and Laboratory Services

Summary

Citritek’s chemists and microbiologists provide full laboratory testing and sampling — including advice on the right tests for your systems — covering chemical and microbiological contaminants across healthcare, institutional and industrial water and air systems.

Solution

Monitoring data tells you what conditions your system is operating in. Laboratory testing tells you what is actually growing. The two together provide a complete risk picture. Many organisations commission sampling from companies that have no visibility of the monitoring data, meaning the testing programme is disconnected from real system performance. Citritek bridges that gap: our technical understanding of water microbiology means we design sampling programmes informed by what the data is showing, and we can correlate results with temperature and flow trends to identify where remedial action will have the most impact.

What We Provide
