Microplastics

Microplastics: A GrowingConcern

Microplastics—particles smaller than 5mm—are emerging as a significant environmental and health concern. These persistent pollutants originate from plastic degradation, industrial processes, and consumer products, accumulating in ecosystems and even entering the human food chain. Their small size and chemical composition make them difficult to detect and remove, raising concerns about long-term ecological and human health impacts. Understanding and monitoring microplastic contamination is critical for industries looking to mitigate risks, comply with regulations, and improve sustainability.

ExcelPlas: Leaders in Microplastic Analysis

At ExcelPlas, we offer services for the detection, identification, and quantification of microplastics across diverse environments, including water, sediments, industrial waste, and consumer products. Using state-of-the-art techniques such as FTIR-microscopy, SEM analysis, as well as accelerated UV and thermal degradation studies to simulate environmental exposure. We provide precise characterisation of microplastic contaminants.

Our expertise extends to:

        · Source Identification –Determining the origin of microplastic pollution, from geosynthetics to packaging waste.

       · Risk Assessment & Mitigation Strategies – Providing actionable insights to minimize microplastic release and          contamination.
