Analysis of organic food

Our core competences for your organic food

From seed to cultivation to the finished organic product – we support you in the analytical testing of your products. We begin by taking samples in the country of origin, assist you in importing the products and work with you to draw up analytical test plans for the respective product groups. In doing so, we consider not only potential residues, but also microbiological and chemical parameters. At the same time, we provide advice on food law questions and evaluate your products regarding their conformity with the EU Organic Regulation, possibly other legal regulations and relevant specifications.

Our range of analyses and services for organic foods

In the organic sector, high expectations are placed on the products being natural and free from residues or contaminants. Every product must meet the requirements of the EU Organic Regulation. Therefore, in addition to the obligatory microbiological and chemical parameters, possible residues and contaminants play a significant role. We provide you with risk-oriented advice for your products, analyse the active substances relevant to you, compare these with the agreed specifications (including the EU Organic Regulation, Maximum Residue Levels Regulation (396/2005), BNN specification) and summarise the results for you in a comprehensive analytical test report. We give you advice in case of findings of "multiple source substances", support you in case of additional enquiries and discuss sources of contamination (e.g. fertilisers, plant fortifiers, soil). We will be happy to check the product's declaration for you and also compare it with your specification. Please do not hesitate to contact us, we will connect you with our respective experts for your product group or your specific question.
