ABOUT OUR TEAM AT CANSFORD LABS

Cansford Laboratories can trace its roots back to 1993, when founders John Wicks and Lolita Tsanaclis developed the UK’s first hair testing regime for drug and alcohol use.  They pioneered the process which is now used common place across many industries and by many laboratories across the country. 

Having established and sold their first drug and alcohol hair testing business TrichoTech, John and Lolita contiuned with their passion for improvement by founding Cansford Laboratories to continue to develop new testing methods, and make rapid, accurate drug and alcohol more widely available.

Today, we offer the UK’s fastest hair drug and alcohol testing service, while investing in research and development and contributing to conferences and symposia to drive up industry standards.
