About Us
Northern Laboratories Ltd. was established in Prince Rupert in 1989 to provide the Northwest with high quality laboratory services and to support a variety of public health officials who work to protect the safety of our environment, food and water. In 2010 Northern Labs underwent a change of ownership and became Northern Laboratories (2010) Ltd.
​
Our primary business is testing drinking water to ensure that the province’s high standards for quality and safety are being met. We also perform chemical and bacteriological tests on landfill leachates, sewage treatment plant effluents, oil/water separators, and other systems. Our clients include government authorities, industry, businesses, consultants and private individuals from Haida Gwaii to Prince George and from Kemano to the Yukon border.
