About the Company

AGAT Laboratories

Analytical testing across environmental, industrial sectors

AGAT Laboratories provides analytical testing services for environmental, industrial, and energy projects across a network of 40+ coast-to-coast laboratories. It helps clients by performing precise laboratory analyses using modern instruments and developing technologies, then delivering clear results through a dedicated project manager and expert scientific staff. The labs combine chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology, geology, engineering, and specialty analyses to support decision-making throughout a project’s life cycle. What sets AGAT apart is its nationwide reach and collaborative, service-oriented approach—“Service Beyond Analysis”—which partners with clients to understand needs and solve challenges rather than just run tests. The company’s goal is to generate accurate data that clients can trust to guide their choices, and to grow by welcoming new labs, clients, and scientific developments, sample by sample.
