# What equipment should I use for sampling?

Always use dedicated, clean and dry sample bottles. It is strictly forbidden to use household items for sampling, such as soft drink bottles, food containers, jam jars, spirit bottles or baby bottles, as these can contaminate the sample and pose an HSE problem.

We can also supply equipment for the sampling itself.
