The Laboratory provides qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis of pollutants, products, raw materials and additives. The Lab measures unknowns and contaminations, identifies quality issues, characterizes trace impurities, raw materials and chemical compounds and more, in order to check:

compliance with regulations
control of compatibility
environmental & health exposure
compliance with the specifications of products/materials

CEPRA srl Laboratory is equipped with modern analytical instrumentation and it is specialized in chemical analysis of different types of matrices.

The Laboratory team is composed by experts graduates in chemistry.

The Laboratory perform anlysis with different kind of techniques, such as:

• gas chromatography
• GC / MS
• High Perfomance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
• ion chromatography (IC)
• ICP (plasma atomic emission spectrometry)
• spectrophotometry
• gravimetry
• X-ray diffraction (XRD / XRF)
• optical microscopy
• NMR
• IR

for the determination and quantification of organic and inorganic chemicals.

The main methods used are official (Italian law) or international standards (APAT-IRSA-CNR, APHA, UNICHIM, ASTM, EN).

All test reports are signed by members of the Professional Chemists Society and therefore have legal value.

The laboratory operates in a quality management system certified according to the UNI EN ISO 9001:2008.
