Northstar Environmental Testing

Other than Lead, Asbestos & Mold, various other contaminants such as dust, bacteria, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) may invade indoor environments and cause health concerns for building occupants. Unfortunately, the ever increasing focus on energy efficiency has led to an increase in indoor air quality concerns by trapping more contaminants.

Specialty manufacturing process can contain a vast array of dangerous materials and compounds. NorthStar has a competent staff of qualified personnel and is associated with several Certified Industrial Hygienists who provide competent analysis for nearly any hazardous material. The Occupational Health & Safety Administration (OSHA) maintains a directory of permissible exposure limits for almost any worksite contaminant.

Many school districts and government agencies require written safety programs to address certain hazards which may arise from daily occupation of indoor areas. NorthStar is experienced, tailoring safety programs to our client's specific needs. Examples include indoor air quality standards, mercury protection programs, respiratory protection programs and lead/asbestos abatement project designs.
