Clandestine Laboratories Testing

Methamphetamine, commonly known as “ice” or “crystal meth,” is one of the most widely used illicit stimulants in Australia. Over the past two decades, its use has shifted from powdered forms to the more potent crystalline form, leading to increased health, social, and environmental impacts.

Australia’s relative isolation and high street prices have made local production attractive, resulting in the discovery of numerous clandestine laboratories across the country. These labs often operate in residential properties, industrial sites, and rural areas, leaving behind toxic chemical residues that can contaminate surfaces and building materials.

Because of these risks, testing and decontamination of suspected properties have become essential to protect public health and ensure safe reoccupation.

We take a thorough and professional approach: inspecting and sampling sites, with all analysis conducted or overseen by accredited laboratories. Reports are clear and detailed, written in plain language, and include practical, actionable recommendations to help property owners and managers make informed, confident decisions.
