If the product or substance you wish to market can enter the environment, you are required by law to demonstrate that the substance in question is safe for the environment. This can be done using ecotoxicity tests.
An ecotoxicity study can also be conducted if you are concerned about possible contamination of soil or groundwater on your site.
In both cases, VITO can help. We are the Flemish reference lab for ecotoxicity tests and have a wide range of tests available. We work according to Good Laboratory Practice, use standard protocols, and to this end, contribute to international studies and ring tests.
