Soil Recovery

Soil testing is essential for determining the suitability of soil for reuse or disposal. Fitz Scientific provides detailed analysis of soil samples to detect relevant contaminants. This testing is appropriate for soil and stone recovered from greenfield sites. The Environmental Protection Agency have set out minimum testing and compliance criteria that must be met, in order to determine if recovered soils are acceptable for disposal at authorised soil recovery facilities – “EPA (2020), Guidance on waste acceptance criteria at authorised soil recovery facilities.”


Fitz Scientific provide full in-house testing services for all elemental, organic and non-organic parameters. The expert team uses world class facilities to provide accurate and reliable results. Fitz Scientific provides accredited results to assist clients in making informed decisions, reducing environmental impact, and optimizing soil reuse strategies.
