DOD Technologies has launched DOD Labs, a new analytical laboratory division focused on the detection and analysis of PFAS in environmental and occupational samples, including drinking water and wastewater.
The new division expands the company’s capabilities beyond low-level gas detection, responding to growing demand for reliable PFAS testing as regulators and water professionals address the risks posed by so-called “forever chemicals”.
DOD Labs PFAS testing supports water and environmental monitoring
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are highly persistent synthetic chemicals that have become a major environmental and public health concern worldwide. Their resistance to degradation has led to increased scrutiny across drinking water, wastewater, landfill leachate and soil monitoring programmes.
DOD Labs is positioned to support these efforts through EPA-approved analytical methods, providing accurate and timely PFAS analysis to aid compliance, mitigation and environmental risk management.
Dan O’Donnell, Founder and Chairman of DOD Technologies, said: “For over 20 years, DOD Technologies has been The Leader in Low-Level Gas Detection, serving industries world-wide including semiconductor, specialty chemical, automotive, polyurethane foam and aerospace. DOD Labs is aligned and committed to providing the same product and service excellence that our clients have come to expect.”
EPA-approved methods and future-focused development
DOD Labs offers a range of analytical services aligned with EPA Methods 533, 537.1 and 1633, including comprehensive PFAS testing kits, ultra-short chain analysis and custom testing options. These services are designed to support organisations facing tightening regulatory requirements and expanding monitoring obligations.
In addition to laboratory analysis, the DOD Labs team is developing new direct-reading technologies intended to help environmental health and safety professionals stay ahead of evolving PFAS detection and reporting needs.
The launch of DOD Labs reflects DOD Technologies’ continued investment in innovation and environmental stewardship, extending its portfolio to address emerging contaminants that pose long-term challenges for water quality and public health.
