Retego Labs.
Clarity through chemistry.

Corrosion is silent. Until it isn't.

Retego Labs turns water into actionable intelligence in time to prevent damage, not just document it. We diagnose corrosion, and the chemistry, and microbiology behind it on site. In minutes for chemistry and 1-24 hours for microbiology, instead of the weeks the old methods take. From oilfield SRB to industrial corrosion and home plumbing, we act before the damage is done.

Introducing Retego
Certus SRB

Get results in 1–24 hours with our Certus SRB test

Water quality is everything. Quality is determined by what is in your water.

There are a wide range of variables that can affect the quality of your water. The type of pipes you use, the frequency of your water use, and the configuration of your appliances can impact water quality. It’s common to find varying water quality from faucet to faucet and from appliance to appliance. Your water system can be customized to fit your unique water use while eliminating contaminants. The first step is performing a comprehensive chemical analysis of the water.
Knowing what is in your water is the key.

1-24 Hours with Retego versus weeks for other methods.

With the Retego Certus™ SRB you can have results within one day versus the 28 day API method, which is the industry standard.

60+ parameters. Metal ions, microbes, and predictive corrosion indices on a single platform.

The Retego Aegis™ runs patented cuvette chemistry, returning lab quality water chemistry in minutes, in the field.

Down to the molecule in minutes

Instead of needing specialized equipment, and off-site operators with specialized training, the Retego test provides lab-quality results in minutes, requiring a fraction of the resources:

Three vertical rectangular test cuvettes labeled Ca-H, ALK, and pH with purple, green, and brown liquids respectively.

Non-hazardous, single-use vials that contain a stable mixture of all chemical components needed to conduct their respective test. The only liquid required for testing is the sample

Black rugged carrying case open to reveal a laptop displaying water quality test results for Sam's Water dated July 8, 2025.

A durable, portable, field detector that accurately measures each sample by conducting a multivariate analysis using multiple laser (and other light-emitting) diodes at different wavelengths.

While the analytical capabilities of our initial testing are remarkable, the long-term power resides in our app: where your data becomes accessible and searchable
