Find out how we have helped businesses like yours achieve their goals.
I've been in the business for 10 years now, and that whole time they're the only lab we've worked with and we haven't had any reason to search elsewhere. They've kept us happy, and I think we look at Sterling Labs as being a vital part of our process.
Among their strengths: data reliability, turnaround times, and pickups. Project managers are responsive and pretty helpful with their customer service. They are flexible –if we send them six samples, and then call later and ask them to prioritize some over others, they will do that.
They are centrally located within Chicagoland, and are easy to access (...) They also have been known to help us outside of regular hours, when other companies would not. We have been doing business with them for a very long time. Having consistent staff is important. They have had the same staff for a very long time and that is very meaningful.
They give more personalized attention for smaller companies such as ourselves so we don’t get lost. And we don't feel like a nuisance, if you will, compared to the bigger guys and their bigger accounts and the volumes they are used to receiving from customers. So that is a big positive as far as I am concerned. We are able to get a hold of someone on a routine basis and get the answers right away.
They do a great job. We do a lot of PCBs in oils and they run a modification of the method that most labs don't that provides a much better sensitivity for that analysis and so that is something that stands out. They have gone beyond what the norm is to provide a more sensitive analysis. They have 24-7 service which most labs do not anymore.
