Food and Feed analysis
Food and feed products are analyzed for several reasons, such as monitoring product quality, being able to guarantee food / feed safety and compliancy with official regulations.
QUALITY ASSURED
Food producers must ensure that they produce safe and high-quality products. For this they rely on analysis with accurate analyzers. We offer a comprehensive range of analytical methods for food & feed analysis. Reliable routine analysis according to AACC, AOAC, ASBC, EBC, MEBAK, ICC, EPA, ISO, Coresta, GB, LFGB, NYT etc.
ACCURATE RESULTS
Before installation at a customer’s site, the analyzers are thoroughly tested and set according to the customer’s standards to obtain the most optimal and accurate analysis results. Additionally, new application development for specific samples is fully supported by Skalar’s application laboratory in close cooperation with the customer.
TIME EFFICIENT
An important factor for laboratories is time. Automation of the analyses with a Skalar analyzer reduces the analysis times and increases the sample throughput. The response times to the detection of changes are more immediate, which ensures a better control of the production process and waste reduction.
COST EFFECTIVE
A key aspect for purchasers. The low operational costs simplify the choice to automate applications, bearing in mind an increase in speed and reliability.
