This section carries the short reports we routinely prepare arising from the analysis of samples by the\u00a0Greenpeace Research Laboratories in support of projects carried out by Greenpeace’s many national and regional offices. \u00a0They are published in the interest of transparency, and in order that all of the output from our analytical laboratories is in the public domain, whatever the results of those investigations. \u00a0In most cases, analytical results files will be published here within 3 months of the results being delivered to Greenpeace’s\u00a0offices, whether or not they have also been published by those offices. \u00a0In some cases, publication on this site may be\u00a0delayed\u00a0beyond that in order to allow for publication locally in the first instance.<\/p>\n

All files can be downloaded free of charge. \u00a0Please contact us if you require any further information in addition to that which is included in the reports.<\/p>\n
