Just starting my shift in the office this morning. We are well and truly open for business, site work continues as normal, and there will always be someone in the head office to deal with post, deliveries and document signatures. Everybody else will be working from home working on reports. I suspect that the silver lining to this cloud is that [...]

FLOODEX UK 2020

2020-03-09T11:43:13+00:00

It was a really quiet Floodex this year. Nobody was entirely sure why. One thought was that companies may be busy dealing with the current floods. Another was that potential Corona Virus was keeping people away. It has been a good start to 2020 for business, so potentially companies are too busy.

Toby (pictured) is doing a great job for us in Shoreham testing samples for metals contamination using XRF (X-Ray Fluorescence). XRF is highly sensitive to metallic elements, however, the XRF from QROS can also detect the lighter elements such as Ca, Mg, Al, Sulphur and Chlorine, which can be useful for Sulphate estimations.
