At AgroChemex our aim is to be able to offer the full range of services that one would expect from a research station. To this extent we offer an extensive range of laboratory based services from Aldham’s Farm Research Station.
 

Laboratory Facilities
Immediately adjacent to the glasshouse complex we have our suite of laboratories, each designed with specific uses in mind: sample preparation, biological assessment and evaluation, etc.

From the laboratories we offer a range of services including:
Ø Physical compatibility testing of agrochemicals, surfactants/adjuvants, trace elements and liquid fertilisers.
Ø Agrochemical ‘Jar’ Tests
Ø Contract seed treatment (experimental samples)
Ø Seed treatment loading and coverage analysis
Ø Germination testing
Ø Drill flowability assessments

Agrochemical Sample Management
From the laboratories we provide a worldwide agrochemical sample preparation and shipping service for a number of clients in the agrochemical industry. We are one of the few companies in the UK qualified and certificated so as to be able to also offer this service for radio labelled compounds.

Strategic Partnerships with many Contract Labs
Our relationships extend our range of services to include physicalchemical testing, analysis of chemical samples and plant materials, ecotoxicology and lab based environmental fate studies.
