Laboratory Accreditations
META’s own laboratory accreditations include
maintaining National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) Proficiency Analytical Testing (PAT) Program proficiency.
META has maintained continuous PAT proficiency since NIOSH began
the program in the 1980’s. META’s PAT proficiency allows us to
provide on-site asbestos air sample analysis during asbestos abatement
projects around the country. META relies on its contract relationships
with major national environmental laboratories. These laboratories
carry out state-of-the-art analyses on a wide variety of analytes
and hold all major laboratory accreditations as outlined below.
