We offer a suite of tests and services to help control SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) and detect its presence in your working environment so that you can keep your workforce safe and your operations running.
Environmental testing and control
Does your air cleaning system remove SARS-CoV-2?
With our purpose-built aerobiology laboratory capable of representing factory conditions, our team of experienced microbiologists has developed a new test procedure to validate air cleaning systems on a scale not replicated elsewhere in the UK.
Are you certain your cleaning regimes destroy all COVID-19 particles?
Using our safe COVID-19 surrogate, we 'infect' your premises, you clean, we test to ensure no surrogate remains active. COVID-19 can be reintroduced to your workplace with every shift change. Being airborne makes it challenging to control.
Has COVID-19 arrived in your workplace?
Receive early warning that COVID-19 is present in your workplace with our Environmental and Surface Swab Testing for COVID-19 Asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic people can unintentionally bring the virus in and it can spread rapidly to other employees also threatening your business.
Have you thought of everything for effective factory hygiene against Coronavirus? Are you undertaking a Coronavirus deep clean?
Our Food Safety Management specialists share their advice on protecting against this dangerous airborne virus and refer you to the relevant legislation.
PCR-based swab test - how can we help?
Campden BRI offers PCR testing that is highly accurate and sensitive to early detection of SARS-Cov-2. PCR testing detects lower levels of virus than other available methods, identifying the presence of virus earlier in the infection cycle. All swabs are processed by our experienced virology team and Campden BRI has a world class reputation for excellence in the field of microbiology.
