Pacific Environmental Has Opened a Fungal Laboratory

 

As a leading provider of asbestos laboratory services, Pacific Environmental Consulting Services (PECS) is pleased to announce we have expanded our laboratory services to include fungal analysis. We are now one of a very small number of companies in Western Canada offering this service!

 

Under the direction of Brian Kerin (MSc., Biologist), our recently opened fungal lab in our North Vancouver office provides the same reliability, consistency and quality work you have come to depend on with all Pacific Environmental services. Brian has more than 5 years fungal identification experience with one of the leading laboratories in the industry. Our keen emphasis on detail from receipt of samples to sample analysis, through to final reporting ensures clients always receive quality data.
