Laboratories

Lab contact details and request forms

REAL have appointed three laboratories to undertake testing under the Compost Certification Scheme:

  • D&F
  • Eurofins Agro
  • NRM

You can find the contact details for the appointed labs here.

PAS 100 Compost Analysis Request Form

Compost samples sent to the laboratories for certification purposes will need to be accompanied by the PAS 100 Compost Analysis Request Form, which can be downloaded here.  

The Microsoft Word version of this form can also be downloaded here.

PAS 100 test results

The PAS 100 test reports associated with your certification will be uploaded directly to the CCS database by the laboratories. In order to do this, they require the correct certification code (whether existing or temporary) as detailed above. The laboratories will also send a copy of the reports to producers but please note that the certification bodies will only accept those results submitted to the CCS database. The laboratory test results will not become publicly available, although REAL may share anonymised sets of data externally for other purposes.
