EMLab P&K Increases Mold Testing & Bacteria Testing Capacity To Support Florida & Georgia During Flooding

Ft. Lauderdale, FL, September 9, 2009 – In response to flooding in northeast Florida and southeast Georgia, EMLab P&K has added local and overall mold testing and bacteria testing capacity, including weekend and emergency staffing, to support the increased need for environmental testing. As the nation’s leading environmental testing laboratory, EMLab P&K maintains a strong presence in the region with an AIHA accredited mold testing and bacteria testing lab in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and sample drop-off locations throughout Florida (Jacksonville, Tallahassee, Pensacola, Orlando, and Tampa) and Georgia (Savannah and Norcross).

As property owners return to their homes and businesses that may appear to be irreparable, some buildings may be salvageable through remediation. In addition to losing personal possessions, property owners must deal with the potential for bacterial contamination, mold growth, sewage contamination and other environmental health concerns caused by flooding and water damage.

“EMLab P&K has been staying informed about the flooding situation in Georgia’s Glynn County and Florida’s Nassau County. We are also teamed with TestAmerica to offer a wide range of environmental testing lab services to help the states address emerging health concerns quickly,” said Belinda Vega, EMLab P&K’s President. “During a critical time like this, our proactive approach has an immediate and positive impact with the lab services we are able to provide. As always, clients can expect and trust the quality and accuracy of our lab analysis.”

EMLab P&K is recognized as one of the leading commercial indoor air quality laboratories in North America, specializing in the analysis of air and surface samples for mold, bacteria, fungi, asbestos, allergens and USP 797. EMLab P&K has received accreditations from AIHA, NVLAP, CA-ELAP and other accreditation programs. For more information, visit the official website at http://www.emlabpk.com or call 877-711-8400.
