Why Water Purity Matters

Archaeology and heritage conservation require high-purity water for the analysis, conservation, and preservation of irreplaceable artefacts and samples. From radiocarbon dating and isotope analysis to artefact cleaning and conservation treatments, water quality plays a critical role in protecting cultural heritage.

Contamination in laboratory water can introduce carbon, metals, or other elements that interfere with dating techniques, isotope ratios, and chemical analyses. When working with unique, irreplaceable samples, the consequences of water-borne contamination can be scientifically and culturally devastating.

Our Type I ultrapure and Type II analytical water products provide archaeology and conservation laboratories with the verified purity needed to protect valuable samples and produce accurate, publishable analytical results.
