A range of test options:

Access to our wide range of point-of-care and laboratory test services helps protect organisations from employing individuals who might later pose a security risk. Our portfolio includes hair, blood, nail and oral fluid (saliva) tests, for detecting drug and alcohol use in-the-moment, historically and across long periods.

Speed and peace of mind:

We deliver 99% of hair, blood and nail test results within 3 days of receipt at our labs, where other laboratories take weeks. Sample collection can typically be arranged within 48 hours – helping you resolve cases quickly, and with minimal fuss.

Quality, care, accuracy:

We know that the results of the tests we conduct have a significant effect on students’ lives. Our laboratory test processes are ISO 17025-accredited, ensuring the highest standards of accuracy, reliability and laboratory expertise across our portfolio.

Support from start to finish:

Choosing the right test can be confusing, and the results may be used in court. You’ll be supported by a single point of contact in our labs at every step of the testing process, who will answer any questions you might have and support your decision-making.

Convenient collections:

Our team of 50 trained collectors can travel almost anywhere in the UK to take samples – minimising disruption for you and your students. And our lab is based in the UK too, so there’s no possibility or chance of disruption or delay from using an overseas lab.
