EMAX Laboratories, Inc. (EMAX) has provided
comprehensive environmental laboratory services to governmental,
state and local agencies since 1987. EMAX was founded
to fill a need within the California marketplace for a flexible,
reliable, and cost-effective analytical laboratory for consulting
firms involved in the early stages of site investigation
and remediation. Our firm was there “at the beginning” providing
fundamental services for the development of statewide and
regional environmental compliance, enforcement, and remedial
action programs.
Similarly, we had the opportunity to provide
large-scale analytical support to the initial and then burgeoning
environmental restoration programs of the branches of the
Department of Defense, the Department of Energy, and the
United States Environmental Protection Agency. Since these
early years, we have grown – twice
moving to larger, more modern facilities,
and now occupying a state-of-the-art, 27,000 square foot physical plant in Torrance,
California, only a short distance from our original location.
The industry we
support has undergone periods of growth, uncertainty, and
consolidation. For ourselves, we have maintained levels of
stability and consistency – especially
in the area of staff resources – that are envied by
many of our competitors, both larger and smaller. With a
strong dedication to the continuation of our technical proficiency,
we place extreme emphasis on in-house training, third-party
review of procedures and protocols, and the audit and peer-review
processes.
Over the past 20 years, EMAX has
distinguished itself within the laboratory services industry
by its stability in staff, its recognized technical proficiency,
and its commitment to providing analytical deliverables in
a wide variety of either agency-specified or client-developed
reporting formats. We must share a large portion of our success
in these areas with our clients,
for it is a product of their dedication, input, and communication
with us.
The company has been evaluated and audited
by numerous governmental agencies and private-sector clients
and has provided analytical
services in support of the overall environmental programs
of:
- Department of Defense Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (DOD ELAP)
United States Army (USACE)
United States Navy (NFESC)
United States Air Force (AFCEE)
- Department of Food and Agriculture Permit to Import Soils
- Department of Energy
