Who We Are

Techtron Environmental Solutions was founded in 1988 by Mike Bodnar to provide accurate, reliable testing for hazardous materials across the Upper Midwest. For over three decades, the company built a trusted reputation delivering environmental testing services to homeowners, businesses, and government agencies at both local and national levels.

In 2017, the concept for the Mobile Lab Network was developed: a proprietary system that would bring ISO-accredited lab testing directly to job sites, eliminating the delays and inefficiencies of traditional off-site labs. The first ISO-accredited mobile lab was deployed in 2020, proving the model could deliver certified results on-site within hours. In 2023, Brian Meyer acquired Techtron Environmental Solutions, and in 2025, the company launched its first joint venture and began franchising nationally with FranDevCo.

The global environmental testing market is projected to reach $382.66 billion by 2030, driven by stricter regulations and growing awareness of hazardous materials in buildings and infrastructure

What Sets Techtron Apart

What Makes Heights Wellness Retreat the Top Wellness Franchise?

The Mobile Lab Network

Techtron provides every franchisee with a fully equipped, ISO-accredited mobile lab, a complete testing facility on wheels. All equipment comes pre-calibrated for asbestos, mold, and lead testing. Each unit is operated by one trained technician, connected to the Techtron Operating System for real-time reporting, and capable of delivering same-day certified results. No other franchise system offers this level of on-site testing capability.

No Brick-and-Mortar, Minimal Staffing

Unlike traditional environmental testing companies that rely on fixed lab locations and large teams, Techtron franchisees operate entirely from their mobile labs. The model typically requires just one trained technician per mobile lab, with staffing expanding only as B2B relationships and project volume grow. Low overhead and no real estate translate to a lean, efficient operation from day one.

Comprehensive Training & Proprietary Technology

Franchisees receive pre-opening training covering operations, compliance, NAID certification requirements, and technical instruction on mobile lab equipment. The Techtron Operating System powers standardized workflows, real-time reporting, and centralized data access supported by CRM-driven customer and project tracking. Ongoing education, personalized coaching, and technical oversight ensure franchisees stay current with evolving environmental testing standards.
