Our food and export testing team spent four days at Aahar 2026 at Pragati Maidan, New Delhi, meeting more than 200 processors, exporters and packaging suppliers across the show.

What people came to ask about

Two questions dominated. Exporters wanted to know how to stop consignments being held at the EU border, which almost always comes down to screening for the right residues early enough to act on the result. Packaging converters wanted clarity on the revised FSSAI migration limits and whether their existing data still holds.

Both now have longer answers on the site, in the blog and in the news item on the packaging limits.

What we showed

The accredited scope under TC-5843, the export approvals that sit alongside it from APEDA, EIC, Spice Board, Tea Board and IOPEPC, and the instrument capability behind them, including the second LC-MS/MS system commissioned in August.

If we did not get to you

Trade show conversations are short and the hall was busy. Send the product and the market it ships to and our technical team will reply with the panel, the sample quantity and a firm turnaround.
