In our mission to provide accurate and scientifically defensible data, our laboratory places a strong emphasis on utilizing the most modern instrumentation available. We believe this differentiates us from other laboratories in the industry. By combining high-end instrumentation with a proactive preventative maintenance system, we are able to reduce unexpected instrument down time and maintain operational productivity. When non-routine maintenance is required, RTI has relationships with service providers that can be on site within 24 hours. With our emphasis on modern technology and responsive monitoring, we are able to effectively manage our laboratory operations and maximize output.
