Soil Testing
Not all soil laboratories are equal
Soil samples are as varied and unique as the locations and places from where they are collected. Factors like density, structure, porosity, and permeability are just some of the characteristics that combine to give a soil sample its unique traits. Once chemical contamination is introduced to soil, the complexities increase exponentially.
TriMatrix understands the complexities and characteristics specific to soil samples. We have analyzed soil samples from thousands of sites over the years. We have developed an expertise associated with performing proper preparation and analytical techniques to correctly measure chemical concentrations in soil samples.
TriMatrix is experienced in the analysis of soil samples collected from sites throughout the United States for organic and inorganic analytical parameters. TriMatrix is a NELAP-accredited environmental testing laboratory for soil samples, meeting the NELAC standards established for analytical testing laboratories.
