During the holidays, many manufacturers shut down their lines for thorough annual cleaning, repairs, and maintenance. This maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) also involve fixing any mechanical or electrical issues, or making improvements or updating processes.
Often, before manufacturers can get their lines operational again, they have to swab them to test for residual cleaner or disinfectant residues. Additionally, they may also have to look for residuals of grease, oils, and free of microbes.
Contract Laboratory has helped many companies find laboratories for grease, oil, or residue testing. Some of the test requests include:
- LONG-TERM TESTING Equipment manufacturer needs a laboratory for swabbing and residue testing to detect the presence of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, antibiotics, and/or hormones on equipment surfaces. Looking for a reliable supplier for multiple testing requirements throughout the year.
- UK Company needs a laboratory to test Adipic Acid as a raw material for to be used in manufacturing for: 1. Purity 2. Heavy metals residue (to the ppm and ppb levels) 3. Other impurities such as byproducts from the manufacturing process (succinic acid, Caproic acid ? etc.) 4. Volatile and semi-volatile impurities. (by LCMS for example)
