Food hygiene and food safety

Food manufacturers, logistics service providers and retailers are subject to maximum standards of hygiene. Our food experts register all details of your hygiene status.

Petri dish for microbiological food analysis

We offer you food hygiene services from sampling and laboratory analysis up to and including concepts for implementing the hygiene regulations and training your staff in-house.

The use of compressed air in production processes runs the risk of contaminating the food. We bring our mobile test stand directly to your production facility and thus perform the check on site. Our laboratory analysts deliver the analysis results. A combination of measurement, analysis and evaluation provides information about the quality of your compressed air. In the event of anomalies, we investigate the causes for you.
