Odor Testing Services

EMSL Analytical, Inc., one of the nation’s leading environmental testing laboratories, is helping businesses, property owners, and municipalities uncover the sources of unexplained and unpleasant odors through comprehensive air quality testing and chemical analysis.

Mystery odors can be more than just a nuisance, they can be indicators of chemical off-gassing, microbial contamination, or hidden pollution sources. Using advanced technologies, EMSL’s team of scientists can analyze air, material, surface, and water samples to determine the origin of both indoor and outdoor odors. These analyses can identify sources related to building materials, industrial emissions, microbial growth, or even consumer products.

Odor analysis can be utilized for a wide range of applications, including:

• Residential and commercial indoor air quality assessments
• Industrial hygiene and worker exposure investigations
• Environmental and community odor complaints
• Product off-gassing evaluations
• Building material and HVAC contamination studies

“Our goal is to give clients the scientific data they need to identify and mitigate odor issues quickly and effectively,” said Joe Frasca, Senior Vice President of Marketing at EMSL Analytical, Inc. “Whether the odor is coming from chemical emissions, mold, or an unknown source, EMSL can provide the analytical clarity needed to solve the problem.”

With laboratory locations across North America, EMSL offers rapid turnaround times and accredited testing services to support consultants, health officials, and building managers in resolving air quality concerns. Last year, they sponsored an educational video about mystery odors in the built environment that can still be seen at: https://youtu.be/229MeNyYoNE
