Safe drinking water is fundamental to human health, quality of life, and economic growth. According to the WHO, nearly 2 billion people worldwide are exposed to contaminated drinking water, and in India, less than 50% of the population has access to safe potable water. The most serious risks arise from chemical contaminants such as arsenic, fluoride, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and from microbial pathogens that cause water-borne diseases like diarrhoea, typhoid, and cholera. Since contaminated water often appears clear, odourless, and normal to taste, only detailed laboratory testing can reveal hidden health risks.
Atlas Lab offers comprehensive, state-of-the-art drinking water testing services for households, residential societies, businesses, industries, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, and educational institutions. Testing is conducted as per BIS IS 10500:2012, IS 14543:2004, IS 13428:2005, and WHO/EU/EPA standards, covering key parameters such as pH, TDS, hardness, alkalinity, E. coli, and total coliforms.
