Welcome to April’s Eurofins Water Hygiene Testing news. This month we focus on sustainability.
Microplastics in UK water | Why analysis matters
Recent studies have drawn attention to the growing presence of microplastics in UK and European water sources. Although treatment processes reduce this significantly, the potential impact on ecosystems and human health is under increasing scrutiny.
In response to this environmental challenge, Eurofins provides accredited analysis of microplastics and tyre-derived rubber particles.

Sustainable marketing update | Moving from paper to digital
As part of our commitment to sustainability and Eurofins’ global target of achieving net zero by 2025, Eurofins Water Hygiene Testing UK is reducing reliance on printed materials.
Going forward, when you meet us at events or in person, you’ll have the option to access a digital collection of our marketing leaflets via a QR code instead of taking printed copies.
This simple change helps cut down on paper waste while making it easier for you to keep and share our most recent materials.
Thank you for supporting our journey towards more sustainable practices.
