Our Oil Quality Testing services are specifically designed to assess the integrity, stability, and nutritional value of oils used in food and feed applications. When exposed to oxygen, heat, light, or moisture, fats and oils undergo oxidation, producing compounds such as short-chain aldehydes, ketones, and free fatty acids (FFA). This process not only compromises oil quality but also reduces its energy value, nutritional content, and safety.

Our comprehensive oxidation analysis is ISO-accredited for Peroxide Value (PV) and Free Fatty Acids (FFA), ensuring that we provide our clients with reliable and accurate results. These tests are essential for monitoring the oxidation process, helping manufacturers assess shelf life, identify potential issues, and optimize production processes to maintain the highest quality standards.
In addition to oxidation testing, we offer advanced Antioxidant Analysis services, including measurements of common preservatives like BHA, BHT, and Ethoxyquin, to evaluate inclusion rates and ensure their effectiveness in delaying oxidation. This complete solution reflects our commitment to supporting our clients in maintaining the integrity and quality of their products throughout the supply chain.
