STUDIO ANALISI CHIMICHE E AMBIENTALI

Studio Analisi Chimiche e Ambientali S.R.L. is an Italian chemical and environmental testing laboratory based in Pisticci, in the province of Matera (Basilicata), within the Val Basento industrial district. Operating since 1981 and led by Dr. Pierpaolo Capece, the laboratory works as both an analytical service provider and a technical consultancy, supporting clients across the environmental, agri-food (agro-alimentare), toxicological, and cosmetic sectors. Its customers are primarily industrial production companies — both public and private — that need recurring sampling and analysis carried out under structured contracts, including the definition of sampling types, the specific tests to be run, and the frequency of sample collection over agreed monitoring periods.

The laboratory's most distinctive capability is the analysis of heavy metals in blood and urine. According to the company, it is the only laboratory in Italy holding ACCREDIA accreditation for heavy-metal testing on these biological matrices, based on an in-house validated test method (referenced as "PP19 — Metals in blood and urine"). This service is widely used in occupational and toxicological contexts: occupational-disease and workers'-compensation investigations, occupational medicine, and litigation, as well as preventive screening for populations living in high-risk areas where heavy-metal exposure is linked to metabolic, renal, bone, neuro-behavioral, and oncological conditions. This biomonitoring focus makes the lab a relevant partner for litigation and forensic toxicology work as well as routine occupational health programs.

Beyond biological matrices, the laboratory provides chemical, physical, and microbiological sampling and analysis across a broad range of materials. Reported ACCREDIA-accredited heavy-metal testing also extends to food (alimentari), food supplements (integratori alimentari), and cosmetics, positioning the lab to serve manufacturers and importers who must demonstrate compliance with contaminant limits for lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic, and related elements in consumer and ingestible products.

The lab's service lines include consultancy (consulenza), food and agri-food analyses, waste characterization (rifiuti), and environmental monitoring (monitoraggi ambientali). It is also listed among the laboratories authorized to perform sampling and analysis on matrices containing asbestos (amianto), supporting environmental remediation, occupational safety, and building-materials investigations. The combination of chemical, physical, and microbiological methods allows the lab to address both contamination screening and broader environmental and product-quality questions.

Quality and accreditation are central to the laboratory's positioning. Testing-laboratory accreditation in Italy is granted by ACCREDIA, the national accreditation body, against the ISO/IEC 17025 standard, and the lab promotes its ACCREDIA accreditation as well as participation as a recognized proficiency-testing provider (PTP). The company has also received official recognition for its analytical innovation, including a "Smart Enterprise 2022" award from the Val Basento industrial consortium for the development of its blood-and-urine heavy-metals method.

The laboratory operates from a legal headquarters at Viale Ionio in Pisticci (Matera) and an operational site on Strada Provinciale Pomarico in Pisticci Scalo. A notable operational feature is a 24/7 mobile laboratory service (laboratorio mobile H24), which enables on-site sampling and field measurements — valuable for environmental emergencies, industrial monitoring campaigns, and time-sensitive sampling where matrices must be analyzed quickly or close to the source.

The company also promotes franchising and commercial-consultant partnership opportunities, indicating an intent to expand its analytical and consultancy network beyond its home region. It participates in industry events such as Ecomondo, the leading European trade fair for green and circular-economy technologies, reflecting an active presence in the environmental and sustainability community.

For buyers seeking a testing partner, Studio Analisi Chimiche e Ambientali offers a credible combination of long operating history, ACCREDIA-accredited methods, specialized heavy-metals and biomonitoring expertise, and capabilities spanning environmental, food, supplement, cosmetic, waste, and asbestos matrices. Its consultancy-driven model — defining sampling strategies, test selection, and monitoring frequency together with clients — suits organizations that need ongoing analytical support rather than one-off tests. Quote requests for chemical, physical, microbiological, or heavy-metals analyses can be directed to the laboratory's main business contact.
