At Martech Group, our hazardous materials management solutions are designed to ensure safety, regulatory compliance, and the well-being of building occupants. We specialize in identifying, managing, and mitigating hazardous materials by Ontario Regulation 490 and Ontario Regulation 278/05. Our team of experts provides comprehensive assessments and solutions to address various hazardous material and occupational hygiene concerns. Our primary services include:
Designated and Hazardous Materials Surveys
Our designated and hazardous materials surveys are critical for identifying and managing building hazardous materials. We conduct thorough inspections to detect the presence of designated substances such as asbestos, lead, PCBs, and other hazardous materials. Our services include:
Comprehensive Surveys
Materials Sampling and Analysis
Abatement Planning and Oversight
Detailed assessments of buildings to identify hazardous materials, ensuring compliance with regulations and safety standards.
Detailed assessments of buildings to identify hazardous materials, ensuring compliance with regulations and safety standards.
Detailed assessments of buildings to identify hazardous materials, ensuring compliance with regulations and safety standards.
Occupational Hygiene
Our occupational hygiene services focus on identifying and controlling health hazards in the workplace to protect workers and building occupants. We assess exposure risks and implement measures to mitigate them. Our services include:
Exposure Assessments
Evaluating worker exposure to hazardous substances such as silica, smoke, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), chemicals, noise, and vibrations.
Control Strategies
Developing and implementing control measures, including engineering controls, administrative controls, and personal protective equipment (PPE), to reduce exposure risks.
Health and Safety Training
Providing training programs to educate workers on the hazards, safe handling practices, and regulatory requirements related to hazardous materials.
Mould Investigations
Our mould investigations are essential for identifying and addressing mould growth in buildings, which can pose significant health risks. We conduct thorough inspections and provide effective remediation strategies. Our Services include:
Mould Assessments
Sampling and Analysis
Abatement Planning and Oversight
Comprehensive evaluations to identify mold sources, the extent of contamination, and contributing factors such as moisture intrusion.
Collection and laboratory analysis of air and surface samples to quantify mould levels and identify specific species.
Detailed assessments of buildings to identify hazardous materials, ensuring compliance with regulations and safety standards.
Building Moisture Mapping Studies
Our building moisture mapping studies use advanced technology to detect and map moisture intrusion in buildings. This helps prevent issues such as mould growth and structural damage.
Our services include:
Moisture Detection
Utilizing tools such as infrared thermography and moisture meters to identify areas of moisture accumulation and intrusion.
Mapping and Analysis
Creating detailed moisture maps that highlight affected areas and potential sources of moisture.
Mitigation Recommendations
Providing moisture control and remediation recommendations to prevent further damage and improve building health.
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Assessments
Our Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) assessments ensure healthy and safe indoor environments by identifying and mitigating air quality issues. Our services include:
Air Quality Monitoring
Continuous monitoring of indoor air quality parameters, including particulate matter, VOCs, carbon dioxide, and other pollutants.
Source Identification and Control
Identifying sources of indoor air pollutants and implementing strategies to control or eliminate them.
Ventilation Assessment
Evaluating and optimizing building ventilation systems to ensure adequate air exchange and pollutant removal.
Energy Management and Optimization
Implementing energy-efficient technologies and strategies to reduce energy consumption, lower operational costs, and promote environmental sustainability.
Building Automation and Control Systems
Integrating intelligent control systems to enhance the efficiency and functionality of building operations, including lighting, security, and climate control.
Indoor Environmental Health Assessments
Our Indoor Environmental Health Assessments provide a comprehensive evaluation of the indoor environment to identify and address health hazards. Our services include:
Health Evaluations
Assessing a wide range of factors, including air quality, moisture, mould, noise, and vibrations, to ensure a healthy indoor environment.
Risk Assessment and Mitigation Plans
Conduct risk assessments to identify potential health hazards and develop mitigation plans.
Occupant Health and Comfort
Ensuring that indoor environments promote occupant health, comfort, and productivity through targeted interventions and improvements.
