Our Laboratory

Since 1980 Bahr Brothers has been using the latest technology to provide its clients the capability to test for all known materials. Purchased new in 1996, the Baird DV6 Spectrometer is capable of such analysis. To insure the proper combination of elements throughout your run, tests are run twice per batch thus providing consistent and predictable results. Four times a year, test results from the Spectrometer are sent to an accredited outside laboratory to calibrate results. Our staff of three is capable of responding to your requests with computer generated results as quickly as four hours after we receive it.

In addition to analyzing client supplied material, Bahr Brothers has a full sand lab where tests are performed weekly to insure the proper strength characteristic of the sand is maintained.
