Formaldehyde Testing

ESG offers on-site analysis for airborne formaldehyde vapor. The test device used provides a detection range of 0-0.4 ppm in only 30 minutes and satisfies the requirements for the new World Health Organization level of 0.08 ppm. Formaldehyde is found in many building products and furniture, and studies have found that many newer homes have unsafe levels of this gas in the air.

ESG has found that formaldehyde testing is very useful for the following applications:

• new homes
  
• woodworking shops
• coating & varnishing
  
• engineered wood products
• medical & veterinary offices
• carpet manufacture & storage
• mobile homes
