An Australian laboratory focused on safeguarding the environment, critical industries and public health has unveiled a major transformational upgrade, said to place it at the forefront of Australian testing infrastructure. “The redevelopment of our Smithfield facility in Sydney marks a strategic reinvestment in one of our highest-performing laboratories globally. It repositions Smithfield as a true national hub: expanding capacity, consolidating operations and futureproofing critical testing infrastructure for decades to come. Both measures reduce operational carbon intensity while lowering long-term running costs, a critical consideration in energy-intensive laboratory environments. ALS’s new facility is now fully operational, supporting Australia’s testing requirements across the environmental, water and mining industries.
