Research &
Development

Research & Development focusses on creating innovative, safe, and nutritious products that meet consumer needs and comply with regulatory standards.

Production
Quality Control

Production quality control ensures the consistency, safety, and compliance of products with health standards through rigorous testing and monitoring processes.

Nutrition
Content

Food manufacturers need to analyze nutrition content to meet regulatory standards, provide accurate labeling for consumers, and support healthy dietary choices.

Food
Safety

Food safety comprises practices and protocols that prevent foodborne illnesses and contamination, ensuring that food is stored, handled, processed, and prepared in a safe way.

Flavor &
Taste

To deliver the desired sensory experience with each cup of coffee, quality control measures need to be implemented from coffee berry to roasted bean.

Quality control of coffee

Coffee isn't just a beverage; it's a cultural cornerstone, a daily ritual, and an experience that ignites the senses. However, behind every perfect cup lies a complex process of cultivation, harvesting, roasting, and brewing.

To ensure that every sip meets the highest standards of quality and safety, coffee undergoes rigorous analysis. From sensory evaluations and moisture content assessments to pesticide residue tests and microbiological screenings, a range of analytical methods is employed to guarantee that each batch is not only delicious but also free from contaminants.

Production
Quality Control


  • Cryogenic grinding for extraction of volatiles
  • Size & shape analysis of coffee beans and coffee powder
  • Porosity measurement as a critical indicator of microstructure and texture
  • Nitrogen analysis to evaluate growing process and freshness
  • Thermogravimetric determination of water content
  • Hardness testing of coffee beans

Nutrition
Content


  • Sample preparation of coffee beans prior to composition analysis (caffeine, macronutrients etc.) and microbiological analysis
  • Determination of protein content through nitrogen analysis
  • Measuring the ash content as part of proximate analysis required for nutritional evaluation

Food
Safety


  • Pulverization of green coffee, dry and roasted coffee beans prior to analysis of toxic substances and contaminants
  • Cryogenic grinding of roasted coffee to preserve volatile substances for analysis
  • Ashing of coffee to retain unwanted components such as heavy metals for subsequent analysis
  • Thermogravimetric determination of water content to ensure optimum shelf life

Flavor &
Taste


  • Cryogenic grinding of coffee beans to preserve volatile aromatic substances
  • Nitrogen analysis: beans with higher nitrogen content tend to release more aroma and oil during roasting which can lead to a fuller taste
  • Mineral content through ashing: a balanced ratio of minerals is beneficial for a pleasant taste experience

Quality control of meat & meat substitutes

From classic cuts to plant-based alternatives, ensuring quality and safety is paramount. Through comprehensive analysis, including sensory evaluations and microbial testing, the integrity and safety of meat and its substitutes are upheld. From ensuring optimal taste and texture to verifying nutritional content and detecting any potential contaminants, these analytical processes play a vital role in safeguarding the health and satisfaction of consumers.

Research &
Development


  • Measuring and optimizing protein intake capacity of animals
  • Solubilization, emulsifying and stabilizing properties of plant-based proteins
  • Evaluation of powder dispersibility and protein solubilization kinetics
  • Screening plant protein to select the best candidate to replace meat protein while keeping the formula stable
  • Ball milling pre-ground meat as a starting material for a laboratory diagnostic test

Production
Quality Control


  • Sample preparation for analysis to monitor product quality and consistency of meat and meat substitutes in the production process
  • Determination of ash content which can influence taste, texture and stability
  • Measuring moisture content which affects quality and taste
  • Analysis of protein content as an indicator of quality and price

Nutrition
Content


  • Full homogenization of fatty, streaky, tough meat samples for fat/protein analysis
  • Measuring the ash content as part of proximate analysis required for nutritional evaluation
  • Determination of protein content through nitrogen analysis
  • Characterization of plant-based proteins (peas and soy)

Food
Safety


  • Sample preparation of meat and substitute products prior to analysis of, e.g., harmful substances like pesticides, additives or to test meat for parasitic infections
  • Determination of ash content as part of proximate analysis to ensure no impurities are present and to indicate how processed the meat is
