When you need chemical testing or product testing due to quality, failure or formulation problems, Chemir can help. Our independent contract laboratory provides analytical services such as deformulation (reverse engineering), contaminant identification, failure analysis and litigation support.

Chemir Analytical Services offers consumer product and industrial testing as well as customized chemical analysis to answer questions such as
What is this unknown material?
What is causing this product failure?
Can we identify the source of contamination?
Why is my competitor’s product performing better?
Can we deformulate this product?
What is causing our batch to batch variations?

We ask the right questions, listen to our customers and solve problems for the personal care, food & beverage, plastics & polymers, packaging industries, and more.

Contaminant Identification
Chemir Analytical Services will apply qualitative and quantitative analytical methods to detect and identify contaminants in industrial, personal care, and consumer products. They work closely with their customers to trace the source of the contamination and develop ways to eliminate the contaminant.

Paints and Coatings Testing
Chemir Analytical Services can assist with a variety of analyses for the paint, coating and printing ink industries. Services to the coatings industry include product design and formulation, competitive product characterization and failure analysis.
