Epidemiological wastewater
monitoring for manufacturing
companies and office buildings
The establishment of a wastewater-based epidemiology as an early warning system enables
a healthy working environment and optimised resource planning.
For a healthy and safe working environment
A wastewater-based epidemiological early warning system is not limited to wastewater treatment plants and sewer systems. It can also be used successfully in manufacturing plants and office buildings.
Application for office buildings
Using wastewater-based epidemiology as an early warning system promotes a healthy working environment and has a positive impact on the well-being and performance of employees. Preventive measures can be taken in good time to avoid staff shortages. The background monitoring system creates a safe environment in which employees can work in a focussed and protected manner, leading to an increase in productivity. The system can be easily integrated into the building services and billed with the ancillary costs.

Forecast when employees will return from sick leave
New and effective options for capacity and production planning
Highest level of occupational health care
Increased productivity and concentration thanks to a greater sense of security
Application for manufacturing companies
With a lead time of 1-2 weeks, it is possible to predict whether the number of cases of illness in the company will increase. This allows preparations to be made and the allocation of resources and capacities to be optimised. Hotspots can be identified and particularly vulnerable operating sites can be protected. Once established, the coronavirus early warning system can then be expanded to include any number of biological and chemical parameters.

Order testing
Order the analysis of your samples now. Detection is carried out using RTqPCR (recommended by the EU Commission and ESI-CorA). Sampling is carried out by our certified partner HPC AG or independently using our sampling kits. The process is suitable for wastewater treatment plants as well as for public and private facilities.
How is SARS-CoV-2 analysed in wastewater?
In the webinar "Wastewater-based epidemiology as an early warning system", vermicon AG and HPC AG will demonstrate the advantages of wastewater-based epidemiology, how such a system works in practice and why the sewer system should ideally be included. Participation in the webinar is free of charge. Register now!
