Shelly Moore, Executive Director, and Dr. Win Cowger, Research Director, lead our team as your go-to resource for top-quality plastic pollution analysis. With extensive expertise, including Dr. Cowger’s PhD research on plastic pollution and Shelly Moore’s pioneering contributions to the field, we are deeply committed to standards and quality. We helped develop the first accredited microplastic method, which is now widely accepted in the industry. Our lab is purpose-built for plastic pollution research, minimizing contamination and maximizing data reliability.

Our specialized analytical tools include a novel FTIR hyperspectral imaging process created by Dr. Cowger for small particles, as well as a high-throughput FTIR plate reader for larger particles. Constantly advancing methods, we improve both cost-effectiveness and data reproducibility, ensuring rigorous results. As a dedicated research institute, funding our services directly supports innovation in plastic pollution science. With a track record of processing hundreds of samples for government, academia, and industry, we work with you to tailor our approach to deliver precise, impactful data for your needs.
