Physical-Chemical Analysis

Physical testingPhysical testing of foods. We verify the physical characteristics of raw materials and products

Understand the physical characteristics of your products to guarantee their organoleptic quality throughout their shelf life

Food must obviously be safe, but it must also meet consumer expectations and needs in terms of organoleptic quality. An important part of this is determined by its physical characteristics (texture, viscosity, rheological behavior, etc.). For this reason, it is important to be able to determine these with sufficient accuracy, precision and reproducibility, using the appropriate methodologies and equipment. The physical analysis of food is an indispensable tool for:

Quality control
Comparing different production processes
Supplier screening
Product organoleptic shelf life studies

At AINIA we give you value
