Soot dispersion survey
AREPA carries out soot dispersion investigations after fire incidents. Using specialist sampling and analysis, we quickly and accurately map the extent of soot contamination.
Our approach to soot dispersion investigations
Our specialists carry out an independent investigation to determine where soot particles have spread. In doing so, we use standardised sampling methods to identify soot contamination on surfaces, in air ducts, on equipment and within structures.
By taking targeted samples and analysing them, we reveal the true extent of contamination. This approach avoids assumptions and ensures that only the parts that are actually contaminated are included in follow-up steps.
Research with a focus on clarity and decision-making
The results of the research are brought together in a clear and visual report. This provides insight into where soot pollution is present and what measures, if any, are needed.
AREPA aims to deliver an initial report within 72 hours. This report provides a solid basis for further decision-making by organisations, claims experts and insurers. By providing clarity quickly, targeted measures can be taken and unnecessary disruption to business processes is avoided.

Frequently asked questions
When is a soot dispersion survey needed?
A soot dispersion survey is often carried out after fire incidents or situations where smoke has spread through a building.
Why is soot pollution not always visible?
Soot particles are very small and can move through air currents into hidden spaces such as shafts, ceilings and technical installations.
What happens after the investigation?
Based on the results, we advise on possible next steps. This can range from targeted cleaning to additional inspections or, in some cases, determining that no action is necessary.
Who is the research report for?
The report is often used by organisations, loss adjusters, insurers and other stakeholders to determine appropriate next steps.
How quickly can AREPA conduct an investigation?
