SGS Improves Client Services and Turnaround Times With Launch Of Two New Laboratories in Australia

May 19, 2022

We’re set to significantly increase our processing capacity in Townsville, North Queensland with the addition of two new local sample preparation laboratories in Mt Isa, QLD and Orange, NSW.

The new facilities will enable us to reduce gold and base metal sample sizes by up to 86% before they’re sent to Townsville for analysis. This marks a considerable upgrade to our network enabling Townsville to analyse more samples and improve turnaround times.

The reduction in sample size prior to delivery will also reduce the cost of transporting samples and contribute to a reduction in our carbon footprint. These efficiency savings enable us to minimise our environmental footprint and maximise time and cost savings for our clients.

“We’re excited to launch these two new facilities that will significantly benefit our customers. By providing an alternative service provider for these areas we’ll create faster turnaround times and reduced costs for our clients.” Mark Davidson, National Sales Manager.
