8-Sample Lead Testing Kit (emailed)

It’s important to understand that even low levels of lead are harmful, which we’re guessing is why you’re here.

Our Lead Test Kits are the only ones available in Australia that allow you to test a wide variety of samples at a NATA-accredited lab. The lab we use charges us a charity rate so you pay less, which is one way we are making lead testing more affordable.

In this 8-Sample Lead Testing Kit (emailed), we’ll email you the relevant instructions for the sample(s) that you want to take (just let us know during the checkout process).

8-Sample Lead Testing Kit (emailed) includes:

This kit includes:

• Emailed instructions
• Laboratory analysis of 8 samples
• Written interpretation and comments with your results (we’ll email this to you)

When do I also need to order Add-Ons?

Eggs 🥚

One or more eggs can be tested using this Kit but for each egg, please order the Egg Preparation Add-On.

👉🏼 In other words, you need to order this Kit AND the Egg Preparation Add-On.

Extra Metals 🧲

If you’d like to have your samples analysed for extra metals (as well as lead), then please go here and make your selections.

👉🏼 Note, you need to order this Kit AND the Extra Metals Add-On.

Toys 🧸

If you’ve got painted toys that children and/or pets play with, mouth or suck, then we recommend testing the paint.

There are a couple of options for testing toys:

• Scraping Off Paint: If you can scrape off some paint (any amount up to a total area of 3 cm²), it can be tested for total lead.
• Leachate: If you can’t scrape the paint off, then send the whole toy to the lab where it will be immersed in a mild acid (note, this will damage the toy so it will not be returned to you) then analysed for leachable lead.

For your consideration – there are 7 extra metals which are recommended for testing compliance with the Australian Toy Standard. Click here to order these, too.

👉🏼 Note, to test all 8 Toy Standard Metals you need to order this Kit AND the Toy Paint Metals Suite Add-On for each Toy Paint sample.

Jewellery 💍

Jewellery can be prepared for testing for leachable lead. This is particularly recommended if a child has been mouthing or chewing on jewellery. Simply specify this at the checkout.

PLEASE NOTE that this preparation can damage the jewellery. It is important to consider this, as there are no guarantees that it won’t. If you’d like it back after it’s been tested, be sure to send the sample in a Glad Seal Bag with a self-addressed postage-paid envelope/packaging inside so that the lab can return it to you after testing it.

For your consideration – we recommend the Jewellery Metals Suite, which includes 3 extra metals which are commonly found in jewellery, click here if you want to add on these extra 3 metals.

👉🏼 Note, to test all 4 problem metals in jewellery, you need to order this Kit AND the Jewellery Leachate Add-On.

Asbestos 🏠

Are you worried that there might be asbestos in your paint, soil, ceiling dust, vacuum dust surface dust wipe or building material?

The only way to know for certain is to have the laboratory examine it with their powerful microscope. We’ll send you instructions on how to safely collect the samples.

👉🏼 Note, you need to order this Kit AND the Asbestos Detection Add-On.
