SwabTek’s dry, paper-based tests provide a safe and simple solution to put field test kits back in the hands of frontline security professionals who have turned away from incumbent products due to concerns over safety and reliability. SwabTek’s test kits are intuitive to use and designed with the user in mind, replacing traditional testing kits with paper strips — eliminating the need for bulky or hazardous liquid reagent dropper bottles, breakable glass ampoules and pressurized spray cans.

Since SwabTek’s reagents are dry-powder and set on paper, users will never need to pour, mix or crush packets full of hazardous and carcinogenic liquid chemicals, eliminating safety risks from the testing process.

This dramatic improvement in user safety not only allows security professionals to be better equipped with the tools they need to do their job, but it also allows field testing where it has never been possible before: the workplace, classrooms and even in consumers’ homes.
