Fruit and vegetables are the heart of the food sector. These foods, essential for a balanced and healthy diet, can sometimes hide risks related to the presence of contaminants. Thanks to our Analytical laboratories, we ensure that the fruits and vegetables reaching your tables are safe and free from harmful substances.
In our laboratory, we dedicate ourselves to the in-depth analysis of a wide range of plant-based products, covering various types to guarantee the highest quality and food safety. Our expertise spans a broad spectrum that includes fruits and vegetables in their many varieties: from those rich in water to those high in starch and protein, characterized by lower water and fat content. We analyze both common fresh produce, such as apples, apricots, asparagus, and eggplants, and less common ones like celeriac and salsify, without neglecting precious items like saffron. Our attention also extends to dried legumes, nuts, and a variety of other products that enrich our daily diet, such as grapes, kiwis, peppers, and many more.
We are committed to evaluating not only the nutritional quality but also the safety of the foods that reach consumers’ tables.
