A Modern, Independent Environmental Consultancy

Alkali combines technical expertise with modern digital workflows — reducing manual reporting time and feeding stack testing data directly into Environment Agency reporting formats and client templates. The result is faster turnaround, fewer transcription errors and lower compliance risk than traditional consultancy models.

Modern Reporting Workflow

Digital data capture flows straight into EA Operator Self-Monitoring (OSM), Pollution Inventory and client-specific reporting templates — no rekeying.

Faster Turnaround

Draft MCERTS stack emissions reports issued in days, not weeks — supporting tighter EA deadlines and operator decision-making.

Two Specialist Divisions

An Environmental Consultancy team (air quality, noise, odour, permitting) and an MCERTS Stack Emissions Testing team working under UKAS 24303 (CEMS, FTIR, isokinetic sampling).

UK-Wide Client Base

An independent environmental consultancy trusted by power generation, energy-from-waste, manufacturing, waste and public-sector operators across the UK and Ireland.

Nationwide Delivery

Leeds and Swindon operational bases, with on-site testing teams mobilising across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
