Food Testing

Food and feed testing are critical components in maintaining the integrity and safety of our global food supply. Ensuring their safety and quality through rigorous testing is essential as agricultural commodities travel from farms to tables. These commodities, including grains, flours, rice, sugar, pulses, oils, oil seeds, and animal feeds, form a crucial part of diets worldwide for both people and animals.

For businesses involved in handling food products—such as commercial restaurants, large and medium-sized retailers, food processors, manufacturers, distributors, and importers—testing services play a vital role. These services safeguard against contaminants, ensure compliance with international standards, and maintain the highest quality and safety standards in today’s intricate agricultural supply chains.
