To discuss your needs

Ensure every sip of wine is safe, compliant and enjoyable

While wine is generally safe, a variety of chemical, physical and microbiological factors can affect safety, stability and compliance.

Inaccurate ABV, allergen mislabelling, pesticide residues or microbiological contamination can pose health risks, regulatory penalties and damage to brand reputation – especially for low- or no-alcohol wines.

We provide comprehensive and targeted testing and expert guidance across all key wine safety areas, including ABV, preservatives, heavy and trace metals, pesticide residues, microbiological safety, additives, allergens, mycotoxins and sparkling wine pressure.

Our services help winemakers safeguard quality, meet regulatory requirements, and ensure every bottle is safe for consumers.
