Bring your testing upto the latest regulatory standards without compromising on lab productivity

Our water testing media meets the latest requirements of ISO 7704:2023, specifying the performance testing of membrane filters for the retention and direct enumeration of microorganisms by culture methods.

This now includes enhanced, batch-specific testing of membrane filters in combination with media used for water testing e.g. Chromognic Coliform Agar, Legionella media. By verifying membrane filters alongside culture media, we ensure reliable recovery and enumeration performance, supporting confidence in results while reducing the need for additional in-house validation.
