Sustainable and responsible laboratory practices
Constructed in 2015, our state-of-the-art laboratory was designed with a primary focus on Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) measures. These rigorous controls ensure that we maintain the highest standards of safety while minimizing our environmental impact. A key component of our responsible practices is our dedicated effluent treatment plant, purpose-built to prevent any release of hazardous waste, including HF, into the environment.
Our laboratory proudly holds all required QHSE certifications, including ISO 14001 for environmental, ISO 9001 for quality assurance, and ISO 45001 for Occupational Health and Safety. Our integrated Quality, Health, Safety and Environmental (QHSE) system demonstrates our ongoing dedication to monitoring and continually improving all aspects of our operations.
