Food safety for production companies

As a production company, you must be able to guarantee the quality and safety of your products. We are here to help. You will be assigned a dedicated consultant who can support you on a project basis or temporarily replace your own quality manager. We can assist in many ways to reduce safety risks, —from setting up processes to conducting shelf-life studies and label checks. Benefit from over 100 years of combined experience. We are here to guide you towards guaranteed food safety.

Label checks for compliant packaging

The labels you produce must comply with all applicable laws and regulations. This prevents product recalls, allergic reactions, or re-labelling. Wondering which claims are permitted on your labels or how to ensure correct allergen information? We support production companies in this process. Our consultants check your product labels and help you meet all requirements—for food and non-food products, as well as animal feed. We also provide label checks in languages other than Dutch. 

We review aspects such as: 

  • Does the label include all mandatory information? 
  • Are the nutritional values accurate?
  • Do the claims on the label comply with legislation? 
  • Does the label meet any additional retailer requirements? 
  • What is required to allow certain claims or designations? 
  • Is the Nutri-Score correct? 
     

If your company exports products, we can engage experts from the international Eurofins network to verify labels according to foreign legislation. This way, you can always be confident your label is correct.

Food safety audits for production companies

We carry out audits for production companies to ensure that your business complies with the requirements of food safety programmes. Our experienced consultants assess whether your process control system is functioning optimally. If improvements are needed, they will work with your staff to achieve the best results, always based on a customised action plan. 

Laboratory testing

We can analyse your products through laboratory testing. Our inspectors conduct sampling themselves and have them tested for the relevant factors in a Eurofins laboratory, equipped to conduct a wide range of microbiological, chemical, and sensory product tests. Because we operate nationwide, there is always an inspector nearby who can perform urgent or repeat sampling quickly. Results are also available directly through our digital dashboard. 

Our laboratory is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited by the Dutch Accreditation Council (RvA) and registered under number L154.
