PFAS Endpoint | PFAS soil, water and waste consultants, Australia

PFAS in soil, water and waste · Australia

A verified endpoint for PFAS contamination.

An endpoint is the point at which your site meets the criterion that applies, shown by independent laboratory results. We take PFAS-affected soil, water and waste there by one repeatable method, screen, test, specify, treat, verify, with the time and the fee stated before each step begins. Every step ends in a decision or a specification you can act on, not another assessment of the problem. Confidential from the first call, a reply within one working day, and a written screen within five.

  • Confidential by default

What we do
We read your consultant's report and check tonnes, soil type, total PFAS concentrations and leachate results against the criterion that applies. We tell you whether treatment could change the classification and what it might save against your current disposal quote. If it would not help, we say so.
What you receive
A one-page screen with a recommendation, within one working day of receiving the reports.
What we need from you
The classification letter, laboratory reports, tonnage and your current disposal quote.

How we work

Discreet. Rapid. Diligent.

Three promises, each with a number behind it. No forty-page proposal before a conversation, and one senior point of contact from the first call to the last certificate.

Discreet

Confidential from the first call. We do not name a client in any material without written consent, and a non-disclosure agreement is available before you send us anything.

Rapid

A reply within one working day. A written site screen within five working days, at a fixed fee. A treatability result within three weeks of your sample arriving.

Diligent

Every result from a NATA-accredited laboratory, with paired samples and untreated controls. Specifications written for review by a certified site contamination practitioner. The statutory audit stays independent of us.

Why we do this work. PFAS stays in soil and water for a very long time, and the people who live and work near affected land carry the consequences. We believe land should be returned to good use, and that the communities around it are owed treatment that is measured carefully and reported truthfully.

No product to sell
Sorbent, dose and supplier chosen on your soil's result and on cost.
An independent audit
Appointed by you, never by us. We never audit our own work.
