This service measures what a food actually contains: the macronutrients and moisture that drive label values, the microbial load that decides whether it is safe to eat, and the metals, toxins and additives that regulations cap. Each result is a measured concentration compared against the FSSAI limit or the buyer specification for that commodity.
Launching a new packaged product and filling in the nutrition panel
Qualifying a new supplier or a new lot before it enters production
Backing a shelf-life or quality claim with measured data
Responding to an FSSAI inspection, a customer complaint or a market recall

Method
How the analysis runs
Instrumentation and controls
Every batch runs with the controls its method requires, on calibrated equipment, and a second analyst reviews the data before the report is released.
Standards and methods
Results are reported against the method below, or against your buyer's specification where you send one with the sample.
Ask for the full NABL scope document if you need to confirm accredited coverage before sending the sample.
Not sure which parameters your buyer wants?
Send us the specification. We will tell you what to test and what it costs, at no charge.
The approvals this work is issued under
Reports carry our NABL TC-5843 scope and are accepted by FSSAI as a recognised laboratory. Export testing is covered by our APEDA and Export Inspection Council approvals, with Spice Board, Tea Board and IOPEPC empanelment for those commodities.

Questions we get asked
Can you issue a report for an FSSAI product approval?
Yes. We are an FSSAI recognised laboratory and the report format matches what the authority expects for product approval and annual surveillance testing.
Do you test against a buyer specification instead of a standard?
Send the specification with the sample. We report each parameter against the limit on your document and flag anything outside it.
How many parameters should I run for a routine batch check?
Most processors settle on a 12 to 18 parameter panel covering nutrition, microbiology and the two or three contaminants their commodity is prone to. We will propose one after seeing your product and market.
Do you need the sample in its retail pack?
Where possible, yes. An unopened retail pack removes any question about handling and lets us report against the label as sold.
Can one report cover several batches?
No. Each batch is a separate sample and a separate report, because that is what an inspector or a buyer will ask to see.
