Testing labs in Bogliasco

ACQUA SU MISURA Srl is an Italian water treatment and laboratory analysis company headquartered in Bogliasco, in the Ligurian province of Genova, Italy. Founded in 1983, the company has accumulated more than four decades of experience in the prevention and control of water quality for potable, technical, and recreational water systems. With a staff of approximately 11–50 professionals and two facilities on Via Sessarego in Bogliasco — the corporate office at no. 4H and the dedicated laboratory at no. 2A — ACQUA SU MISURA combines field-based water treatment services with in-house accredited laboratory analysis, positioning itself as a comprehensive single-source partner for water safety compliance across a wide range of industrial, maritime, healthcare, and hospitality clients. The company's internal laboratory holds ACCREDIA accreditation (ACCREDIA being the Italian National Accreditation Body, member of EA and IAF) under laboratory certificate LAB no. 1434. ACCREDIA laboratory accreditation is granted in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025, the international standard for testing and calibration laboratories, confirming the technical competence and impartiality of ACQUA SU MISURA's analytical operations. The company additionally operates under an ISO 9001:2015 quality management system and carries IQNET certification, demonstrating a commitment to internationally recognized quality standards across its entire range of services. In January 2024 ACQUA SU MISURA was welcomed as a member of AIAQ (Associazione Italiana Acqua di Qualità — the Italian Association for Water Quality), further underscoring its standing in the national water treatment sector. The laboratory specializes in microbiological and chemical-physical analysis of water samples drawn from potable, technical, recreational, and industrial water circuits. A flagship analytical service is the monitoring and prevention of Legionella pneumophila — the bacterium responsible for Legionnaires' disease — in complex water installations such as cooling towers, hot-water distribution networks, spa and swimming-pool circuits, and shipboard water systems. Legionella monitoring encompasses sampling protocols, cultural enumeration, risk assessments, and remediation support aligned with Italian national guidelines for Legionella prevention and applicable European public-health legislation. The laboratory also performs chemical-physical parameter testing covering pH, electrical conductivity, turbidity, total hardness, dissolved oxygen, free and total chlorine residuals, nitrates, nitrites, and key corrosion and scale indicators pertinent to thermal-exchange systems and steam circuits. Beyond pure laboratory work, ACQUA SU MISURA delivers a full spectrum of water treatment field services that feed directly into and benefit from its analytical capability. These include the supply and installation of chemical dosing pumps, measurement probes, water softeners, and filtration equipment; chemical products formulated for thermal exchange systems and steam production; on-site chemical-physical field analysis performed during routine service visits; ordinary and extraordinary maintenance of water treatment installations; and emergency sanitization interventions in response to confirmed Legionella findings or contamination events. This integration of in-house analytical testing and field-based corrective intervention allows ACQUA SU MISURA to manage the complete cycle of water risk — from routine monitoring through active remediation — without dependence on external subcontractors. The industrial and client profile of ACQUA SU MISURA reflects the strategic maritime and industrial character of its Ligurian base. The company is an established supplier to the cruise and passenger-ferry industry, with reference clients including Costa Cruises, MSC Cruises, Carnival, and GNV (Grandi Navi Veloci), as well as the Italian shipbuilding conglomerate Fincantieri. Potable water safety and Legionella control aboard passenger vessels demand rigorous compliance with flag-state health regulations and international maritime standards, where the company's accredited laboratory turnaround times and rapid field-response capability are particularly valued. ACQUA SU MISURA equally serves hospital and healthcare facilities, sectors where waterborne pathogen control is mandated by Italian Ministerial decrees and European Directive 2020/2184 on drinking water quality. Major industrial and facility-management clients — including ENGIE and IREN, leading Italian energy and multi-utility groups — also rely on ACQUA SU MISURA for treatment and monitoring of technical water in district heating, cooling towers, and industrial process circuits. In these applications the laboratory's analysis of corrosion inhibitor concentrations, scale precursors, biocide residuals, and conductivity trends enables clients to optimize chemical dosing programs, extend equipment service life, and demonstrate compliance with environmental and occupational safety requirements. The company describes its mission as being a guarantor of evolution and continuous updating in water treatment technology, maintaining close relationships with clients built on experience, reliability, and measurable quality outcomes across all water circuit types it services. Organizations seeking a water testing and treatment partner combining ACCREDIA ISO/IEC 17025-accredited microbiological and chemical-physical laboratory analysis with decades of field expertise in demanding maritime, industrial, and healthcare environments will find ACQUA SU MISURA a well-evidenced and credible choice. Its long-standing roster of blue-chip clients in the cruise, energy, and shipbuilding industries attests to sustained technical reliability, while its ISO 9001:2015 quality management system ensures consistency across every engagement.
