RISK ASSESSMENT

SANEXEN is a leader in human health and ecological risk assessment

The most competent risk assessment team of the industry

Since 1996, SANEXEN has successfully carried out several hundred studies for public and private clients in Quebec and Canada. Our team has also developed and implemented TerraSysTM, a software program for the assessment of ecotoxicological risks of contaminated sites. This innovative software combines all the functions required to perform an ecotoxicological risk assessment, either in a terrestrial or aquatic environment.

The risk assessment evaluates the environmental contamination (soil, air and water) as well as the safety of foods, drinking water and various consumer products. SANEXEN provides a in-depth expertise in assessing toxicological risks for human health as well as for the environment.

THE MOST FLEXIBLE AND RESILIENT SOLUTION FOR THE INDUSTRY

Our team comprises professionals from various disciplines including toxicology, ecotoxicology, biology, ecology, environmental modelling, environmental engineering, etc.). We are therefore able to offer our customers a thorough and comprehensive expertise as well as customized solutions meeting all risk assessment requirements.
