Our odour acuity training & certification services provide a standardised framework for assessing an individual’s odour sensitivity to the reference compound N-butanol as indicated by Defra’s odour guidance (2010). The assessments are typically carried out over a single two-hour period in accordance with the panellist requirements of BS EN 13725.

Following the assessment, each individual’s sensitivity to the reference odorant is calculated and a certificate is issued. Confirmation of an individual’s sensitivity to odour is a valuable tool for many professionals including:

• Environmental Health Officers 
• Any operator responsible for odour evaluation within their organisation
• Environmental and Air quality consultants conducting odour impact assessments (IAQM odour guidance)
