Water Sampling and Testing
The source of life and existence
More than 70% of our earth’s surface consists of water. Water is of vital importance to all life on earth. But water is not only of biological importance, is also essential to our social, societal and economic existence. Water is a key aspect of production processes, for example. It is used to cool and to heat. As a medium it is used as a reagent and a solvent. Different requirements are made of the quality of our water depending on its use.
Watering down the wine?
SGS conducts daily controls of the composition of waste water, groundwater, process water, cooling water, drinking water and bathing water. We do not water down the wine, but analyze your samples with the greatest of care and accuracy for their chemical, biochemical or microbiological quality. The results of our analyses are checked against the requirements set by your organization or the authorities.
