  • Why TOPA Analysis Matters Now More Than Ever? 💡 In the evolving landscape of environmental regulations, staying ahead of the curve is crucial. With the introduction of NEMP 3.0, regulators now expect broader PFAS detection, not just the traditional target list. This is where TOPA analysis comes into play, helping meet these stringent requirements. 🔍 Standard methods often miss many "hidden" PFAS compounds, but TOPA analysis reveals the true extent of contamination. This comprehensive insight is vital for effective environmental risk management, leading to better decision-making, remediation planning and risk assessment. Our NATA-accredited testing capability ensures reliability, data confidence and compliance with environmental standards. Our advanced TOPA analysis addresses a major gap in PFAS testing, providing the accuracy and depth needed in today's regulatory environment. By leveraging our expertise, industry professionals can navigate the complexities of PFAS detection with confidence, ensuring they meet regulatory expectations and protect environmental health. 👉 Ready to learn more about how TOPA analysis can benefit your projects?

  • Earlier this month, we were pleased to have Bhavesh Prajapati represent SGS at the International Conference on Green Hydrogen, India (ICGH 2025). He joined the panel as an invited speaker by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), Government of India and GH2 India. In the session on “Certification Requirements for the Green Hydrogen Value Chain,” he shared perspectives on RFNBO compliance under the EU Renewable Energy Directive and the importance of credible certification frameworks such as CertifHy. The discussion covered key elements of RFNBO certification process based on EU RED and CertifHy scheme requirements, major challenges for the industry — related to additionality, temporal and geographic correlation, management systems, proof of sustainability, and more — which are essential for successful certification, enabling market access for green hydrogen and its derivatives. At SGS, we continue to support the hydrogen sector with independent verification, certification and sustainability solutions that help industry navigate evolving regulatory and market requirements.
