Volatile organic compound (VOC) analysis

Volatile organic compound (VOC) analysis quantifies substances that readily vaporize at room temperature, often found in materials, chemicals, or the indoor environment. VOCs include hydrocarbons, solvents, aldehydes, alcohols, and terpenes, and their monitoring is essential for assessing air quality, material safety, and regulatory compliance (REACH, BREEAM, etc.).

The analysis is generally performed by thermal desorption coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (TD-GC-MS) or by headspace GC-MS. This method is applicable to many matrices: polymers, packaging, cosmetics, solvents, paints, or textiles.

It allows for precise detection, even in trace amounts, in the context of migration, emission or product security tests.

At YesWeLab , we collaborate with a carefully selected network of laboratories, most of which are certified and/or accredited (ISO 17025, COFRAC, etc.). These laboratories are chosen based on your specific needs, the matrices to be analyzed, and the required analytical techniques or methods.
If you have any particular requirements, please do not hesitate to specify them in your request: our scientific team will do everything possible to respond accurately and promptly.
Since 2020, numerous manufacturers, distributors, and engineering firms have entrusted us with the management of their analyses, sending us their samples through our digital platform.
