North Star Attains UKAS Type C Licence for Asbestos Inspections

By | Company News | No Comments

North Star Environmental is delighted to announce its attainment of a Type C Licence under UKAS accreditation ISO 17020.

This licence grants us permission to perform a full range of asbestos inspections to third party organisations.

Within the industry, dutyholders can often overlook the Type C licence, or view it as somehow implied. However, only a select group of analytical companies possess this award, having proven their expertise under scrutiny from the United Kingdom Accreditation Service.

The attainment of a Type C Licence proves the competence, quality and consistency of North Star Environmental’s work. It distinguishes us from our rivals, and further consolidates our position as a powerhouse within the asbestos industry.

We also remain accredited by UKAS to standard ISO 17025, enabling us to test materials for the possible presence of asbestos within mobile and in-house laboratories.

This makes North Star Environmental an even more well-rounded consultancy, and validates our ethos of constant progress through ethical means.

If you require asbestos inspections, surveys, air monitoring, management or any other elite service, then look no further.
