Asbestos analysis
Safe Control has 30 years of experience and we are accredited by Swedac. We have knowledgeable staff and delivery terms that give you the opportunity to speed up urgent projects.
We are the company you can turn to when you need to know if there is asbestos in building materials (for example tile fix and tile joint, black glue, carpets, floor tiles and facade panels), air samples, dust samples and in water.
We are accredited to perform qualitative asbestos analyzes in solid materials, where we use polarized light microscopes with phase contrast (PLM). We also use a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to analyze materials and air filters.
We work according to national and international method descriptions.
