Leading in Legionella Testing
Legionella prevention
At Normec, we understand the importance of a safe and Legionella-free water supply. In environments where food is produced, processed, or stored, water quality is vital to guarantee product safety and protect consumer health. According to the Drinking Water Act, companies and institutions where people stay overnight are required to have their water checked for Legionella on a regular basis. As the owner of a collective water supply, including in the food sector, you are responsible for the quality of the water you provide. This means that you must have the water tested for Legionella every six months. We are here to help you comply with these legal obligations. Thanks to our sampling and analysis, we work together to ensure that all safety and health standards are met.
