(Intertek: Houston) -- Intertek, a global provider of quality and safety solutions serving a wide range of industries, has expanded its analytical testing services to materials and industrial products clients in the United States with a new laboratory in Allentown, Pennsylvania. The new facility is called Intertek Analytical Sciences Americas (ASA).
Intertek will provide high-end expert analytical laboratory services from the ASA lab to a wide range of industries and markets, as part of a long-term laboratory outsourcing agreement with Air Products, an industrial gases company, headquartered in Allentown, serving the industrial, energy, technology, and health care markets.
The laboratory has significant expertise and state-of-the-art instrumentation in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), microscopy, spectroscopy, chromatography, surface science, and other analytical techniques used by clients for research and development, quality control, failure analysis, and trouble-shooting needs and support.
Intertek ASA’s staff includes scientists and technicians with years of experience with industrial materials and processes. The lab complements laboratory-based troubleshooting, problem-solving, new product research, and development analytical testing support services that Intertek currently provides to clients in North America and globally.
“We are pleased to launch new commercial laboratory operations from the Intertek ASA Allentown location,” says Neil Chapman, vice president of Intertek Analytical Services for the Americas. “The laboratory’s advanced technologies and methods enable our North American clients to take full advantage of resident world-class analysis capabilities and expertise.”
“We welcome this commercial arrangement with Intertek,” says Monty Alger, chief technology officer for Air Products. “The establishment of Intertek ASA ensures continued access to world-class laboratory services and experts, helping support our business.”
