Soil sampling and analysis gives you chemical and physical information about the soil which can be used to optimize plant growth or assist in solving soil-related problems. Soil test results will guide you in the decision whether or not to fertilize, resulting in environmental and economic benefits. Soil test results can indicate problem areas in your soil. Some examples include: excess salts, high or low pH, problematic soil texture, adverse nutrient levels, etc. These results can be useful for guidance in management or remediation decisions.
For soil investigation and soil remediation projects the testing of environmentally relevant parameters on soil and groundwater is of great importance. Eurofins performs testing on routine parameters like heavy metals, TPH, PAH, EOX, aromatics, VOCs and pesticides, as well as non-standard parameters like glycols and phthalates using a wide range of modern techniques including ICP-AES, ICP-MS, (LVI)-GC/MS, HPLC and LC-MS. The pre-treatment and analytical methods that we currently use fully comply with national standards.
