Testing to ISO, ASTM, EN, GSO and SASO methods.
Reports you can use
Certified reports with interpretation and next steps.
9 SPECIALIST CAPABILITIES
What the service can cover
Select the capabilities that match your Food Testing requirement, operating context and agreed delivery stage.
Foodborne Pathogen Testing
Arrange testing for selected foodborne pathogens using product-appropriate methods and sampling requirements. Assessment criteria are agreed for the food and intended market.
Hygiene-Indicator Testing
Measure selected hygiene indicators in relevant food or environmental samples. Findings support review of hygiene controls and investigation of results outside agreed criteria.
Spoilage-Organism Testing
Coordinate testing for spoilage organisms relevant to the product and processing conditions. Results support investigations into deterioration and recurring product-quality complaints.
Production-Environment Testing
Develop laboratory testing programmes for agreed environmental sampling points. Results support hygiene verification and identification of locations requiring further investigation or corrective action.
Allergen Testing
Arrange targeted testing for specified allergens in appropriate samples. The programme defines the allergen, sample type, analytical method and interpretation criteria before submission.
Nutritional Composition Analysis
Measure agreed nutritional components in ingredients or finished products. Findings support product composition reviews and comparison with approved formulations or customer specifications.
Heavy-Metal Testing
Coordinate measurement of selected heavy metals relevant to the food and supply chain. Results are compared with the agreed product-specific assessment criteria.
Pesticide-Residue Testing
Arrange residue testing appropriate to the ingredient, product and intended market. The analytical scope defines the substances covered and required reporting limits.
Mycotoxin Testing
Coordinate targeted mycotoxin analysis for relevant ingredients and products. Sampling and test selection reflect the material risk and the specification being assessed.
