Asahi Techno Research Launches On-Site Air Asbestos Reporting Service on June 1

On June 1, 2026, environmental analysis expert Asahi Techno Research (Otake City, Hiroshima) launched its 'On-site Asbestos Air Reporting Service'. By using a mobile microscope system on-site, the service overturns conventional laboratory turnaround times, delivering safety assessments within 30 minutes of sample collection instead of the next business day. The service features mobile phase-contrast and polarizing microscopes operated by qualified specialists. This setup allows immediate identification of whether detected fibers are asbestos. It serves construction and demolition sites, supporting safety compliance and minimizing operational delays. Initially targeting the Chugoku and Kyushu regions, the company plans to accept orders nationwide depending on project requirements.
