About us
Get in TouchWe have been around since the 1950s and are one of the largest water, wastewater, and environmental testing laboratories in New Zealand. Our IANZ accredited lab is located in Auckland which means comprehensive water and air quality testing is at your fingertips. When it comes to water, we are responsible for testing drinking water for more than one third of New Zealand’s population. While our air quality testing operation is the largest in the country, we combine the latest technology with years of experience, and a personalised approach, to provide a complete service for businesses, district and regional councils, and residential customers.
If you’re thinking the name Watercare sounds familiar, you’re right. We are a division of Watercare Services which each day provides high quality drinking water and efficient wastewater services to 1.7 million customers across Auckland. We share Watercare’s intrinsic values and focus to provide a first class, reliable service that our customers can count on.
