From check-in to final analysis, we control every
aspect of a customer order
to assure prompt and accurate results.
For internal quality checks,
our lab technicians place a series of soil standards before and within a
group of samples to be analyzed each day. This allows data
evaluation before and during each soil analysis.

Soil is scooped for
extraction using procedures as defined in the Recommended Chemical Soil
Test Procedures for the North Central Region.
United Soils invests in
state-of-the-art analysis equipment to assure the most advanced and
accurate results possible.
