Vapor Solutions

What Vapor Solutions does

Vapor Solutions is a Brazilian environmental analytical laboratory founded in 2017 as a subsidiary of Econsulting, specializing in soil vapor and air analysis for contaminated-site assessment and atmospheric monitoring. The company serves clients in the real estate, energy, fuel retail, mining, and environmental consulting sectors, with a named enterprise customer base that includes Raízen, Cyrela, ARCADIS, Votorantim, MRV, Ipiranga, TetraTech, and Servmar. It operates from a headquarters laboratory in Viamão and a secondary site in São Paulo.

The company's core offerings center on three elements: the Vsorber passive sampler (a proprietary device for subsurface gas collection), TO-15 atmospheric analysis methodology (for which the company established the first dedicated laboratory in Brazil), and the Vfast mobile laboratory unit that enables on-site sampling. Vapor Solutions holds ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation through Brazil's CGCRE under registration CRL 1659, covering both fixed-site and mobile analytical capabilities — a position that includes first-of-its-kind accreditation for APH analysis in the country. Reported monthly throughput capacity exceeds 1,000 samples, supported by Thermo Fisher Scientific and Markes instrumentation.

The business operates on a project-based, quote-driven pricing model, with analytical services and equipment-related deliverables forming the primary revenue streams. Customer acquisition is partly channeled through the parent Econsulting's distribution network of approximately 8,000 clients across Brazil. No revenue, headcount, or funding figures are disclosed for Vapor Solutions as a standalone entity.
