We test

Drug delivery devices, air cleaners, respirators, packaging, antimicrobial surfaces, and air-interacting products.

We measure

Particle size, aerosol dose, microbial reduction, emissions, package integrity, and inhalation performance.

We report

Protocols, controls, figures, datasets, and interpretation limits in a reviewable evidence package.

Proof scale

What ARE Labs does

Independent testing for products that move through air.

ARE Labs measures aerosol behavior, microbial challenge, inhalation performance, emissions, surface efficacy, and package integrity, then turns the results into clear reports.

Pharmaceutical aerosol

Dose, particle size, and inhalation performance translated into defensible data.

ARE Labs builds method plans around the formulation, device, flow path, and decision. Outputs can include particle size, emitted dose, delivered dose, comparability, and limits of interpretation.

Bioaerosol and air-device claims

Challenge studies for air devices, filters, and antimicrobial claims.

For air treatment, antimicrobial, filtration, and room-device programs, ARE Labs controls organisms, aerosol generation, sampling, timing, recovery, and reporting so claims are tested against defined conditions.

High-tech measurement stack

Measurement strategy selected around the question.

No single readout answers every aerosol question. ARE Labs combines particle physics, analytical chemistry, device handling, environmental controls, and standards mapping into a fit-for-purpose study.

Device testing

Device and product testing ARE Labs can support.

Start from the product category when the evidence need is commercial, regulated, or claim-critical. These device paths route into aerosol, bioaerosol, inhalation, surface, and package integrity methods.

Study flow

Custom study design, made visible.

Method choice, controls, standards alignment, and deliverables are defined around the decision the data has to support.

01

Define the decision

We identify the claim, change, exposure question, or submission need the data must support.

02

Select the method

Instruments, challenge conditions, flows, replicates, controls, and standards alignment are set before the run.

03

Run the study

Samples move through controlled aerosol, bioaerosol, analytical, or environmental workflows with records attached.

04

Report the evidence

Reports include methods, controls, figures, raw datasets, and clear limits of interpretation.

Choose your entry point

Three clear ways into the site.

Start with the job at hand: scope a study, browse the method catalog, or understand the standards logic behind the work.

I have a product or claim

Start with the decision that needs evidence.

Use this path when a device, formulation, surface, or package needs data before launch, submission, or change control.

I need technical context

Map the standards, claims, and study logic.

Use the standards and research library when the problem is still being framed and the evidence path is not obvious.
