LET’S GET STARTED
1. Purchase your Chinese Drywall Test today by selecting the quantity of samples you want analyzed. Pricing includes lab analysis for detection and quantification of Strontium content.
2. Download the sample submission form by clicking HERE. The submission of samples does not require a designated “kit” to be mailed to you; submission of samples in individual zip-lock bags is sufficient (one sample per bag).
3. Follow the step-by-step instructions and mail the sample(s) to us. We will email you a lab report (PDF), 2-3 business day after receipt of your sample(s) to the email address you provide on the form.
BACKGROUND INFO
Chinese drywall can emit corrosive gas that blackens copper building materials. The EPA analyzed drywall and found that, “Strontium was detected at 2,570 ppm in the Chinese drywall samples. Strontium was detected in the US-manufactured drywall at 244 ppm to 1,130 ppm.”
