PEth testing

This test detects alcohol use over the past month with unmatched sensitivity. We now include blood EtG in all PEth tests, which reveals alcohol intake in the last 2-3 days.

Using a quick and painless dry blood spot test, we eliminiate the need for venous blood collection, making the process faster, easier, and just as reliable.

Nail testing

This test provides a detailed, long-term view of drug and alcohol use, detecting substances for up to six months, and works by analysing substances trapped in the keratin as the nail grows.

We test for a wide range of drugs, as well as alcohol, offering a reliable alternative when hair testing isn't possible.

From the very first time that we contacted Cansford with an initial query, we have always been extremely satisfied with their service. We often have to have urgent pre-employment drug tests done and the team at Cansford always come up trumps for us. The Collectors are always on time and do a really efficient job of taking hair samples. The lab are quick and the Administrative staff are always very helpful, setting up collections for crew members quickly and efficiently.

We would highly recommend Cansford Labs.
