Why Onelab
A reliable laboratory throughout Finland
The analysis method
From properties in Southern Savonia come materials from both residential and garrison buildings. The analysis is done with a JEOL SEM-EDS electron microscope, and the procedure follows the ISO 22262-1 standard. The electron microscope separates individual fibres and EDS elemental analysis confirms their mineral composition, so the asbestos types can be told apart reliably. The result is as a rule ready on the day of arrival.
What a positive result requires
A positive result means that removing the material falls within the scope of asbestos removal work: only an authorised contractor may carry it out, and the space must be sectioned off and kept under negative pressure. This applies to a detached house as well. A negative result gives written clearance to proceed normally.
