FEEDING STUFF TESTING
Since 2005 feeding stuff is legally equivalent to food. Therefore the use of undesired substances in animal nutrition and of veterinary drugs in feed are regulated in this area. GALAB is your partner for residue analysis in grower feeds and pet food.
Contamination of Food
Carry-over of pharmacologically active substances is one of the most common causes for contaminated food of animal origin, especially of meat, fish, milk, eggs and honey. These technically inevitable residues are a result of processes in the feed production or of a specific application on the animal. We check feed and food for you to ensure that safety is also certainty.
ORGANIC FOOD TESTING
With our analytical service GALAB presticides 500PLUS® BNN and further analyses relevant for product or process, you receive the safetywhich is essential for a high-quality organic product. At GALAB we have many years of experience in the organic and whole food area by working in close cooperation with our organic customers. The requirements of the organic market differ significantly from the conventional market. Numerous questions and topics from our customers regarding organic foods show the gap which we want to close.
COMMODITIES OF PLANT ORIGIN TESTING
Foods of plant origin are worldwide the major source of human nutrition. Especially fruits, vegetables and cereals are the basis of a healthy and balanced nutrition. Hazardous substances and residues of contaminants are objectionable. For the safety of your products GALAB offers a broad range of analytical services.
COMMODITIES OF ANIMAL ORIGIN TESTING
Foods of animal origin are prone to spoilage processes – GALAB monitors your products to assess compliance with microbiological requirements. On top of that, consumers are aware of the risks regarding residues of contaminants. Whether it is dioxins in egg or antibiotics in prawns – use our broad expertise in residue analysis!
BABY FOOD TESTING
Quality control for the production of infant formula and foods for young children is subjected to strictes requirements. Compliance with the strict legal requirements for baby food can only be achieved by careful choice of raw materials. We have specialised on baby food and analyse your samples for pesticides, heavy metals, nitrate, mycotoxins, GMO and a potential microbiological load/germ content.

CONSUMER PRODUCT TESTING
Sanitary articles are designed to get into contact with skin. Consumers react highly sensitive when it comes to the topic baby nappies, especially when there are reports about undesired contaminants.
HYGIENE/SANITARY PRODUCT TESTING
Sanitary products are designed to get into contact with skin. Consumers react highly sensitive when it comes to the topic baby nappies, especially when there are reports about undesired contaminants. The requirements for product safety have become much stricter in recent years. Thus, apart from functional properties of the product, focus of consumer interest is also on residues.
INDUSTRIAL PRODUCT TESTING
We are your partner for residue analysis of any substance in starting materials for commodity goods like fibres, glues, hotmelts, dyes, pigments, plastic films and super absorbers (SAP). The European chemicals regulation REACH (1907/2006) defines registration, assessment, authorisation and restriction of chemicals. The European chemicals agency ECHA was founded for the management of chemicals and organises and monitors the REACH process. Substances causing a very high concern according to the REACH regulation are listed in the SVHC candidates list of ECHA. SVHC (substances of very high concern) are classified as particularly hazardous for people and environment since they are e.g. carcinogenic, mutagenic or extremely persistent and bioaccumulative
FOOD PACKAGING TESTING
The packaging of food serves to protect its content, supplies information and is for labelling purposes of a product as well as promotion. Most foods cannot be stored without suitable packaging and are thus not marketable. A variety of materials is used for the packaging of foods. Apart from plastic and cardboard/paper, the most common packaging materials are tins made of aluminium or tinplate and glass jars, for example for baby food.

Organic Food Consulting
Organic food products have taken a very important role in recent years. Consumers are becoming aware of the type of food they consume and are concerned about the chemical component in the reproduce. GALAB Laboratories is an international strategy and management consultancy, specializing in the (organic) food sector, sustainability and development matters, and integrity solutions.
Organic Integrity In Chain Management
GALAB is constantly developing new services in order to meet the ever new and complex needs of our customers. Innovations are vital in a dynamic market in order to lay the foundation for customer success.
At GALAB we now have developed a product especially for european importers. It enables them to easily get to know and understand the value chains of their suppliers in third countries. The primary goal is to identify and subsequently minimize the risks of product mixes, contaminations, and adulterations. By achieving this risk minimization, entrepreneurs who are within the scope of the EU organic regulation are in the end fulfilling their obligations resulting from the most recent amendments to this regulation.
GALAB International
No path is too far and no effort too great for the goal of ensuring sustainability in the area of origin. Nevertheless, efficiency comes first for GALAB. That is why GALAB does its own sampling and goes to the bottom of any given quality assurance, offering the acquisition of local cooperation partners as well as the qualification of the relevant suppliers, for instance by audits. Whatever the object of the analysis, and wherever it is carried out, the GALAB standard is always guaranteed. Worldwide.
SAMPLING SERVICES
The environment belongs to all of us, and your environmental media samples are in good hands with us. Depending on the analysis method, we also take the samples at your location and support you with environmental monitoring if necessary. Regardless of whether it is an environmental analysis or test methods for pesticides, we rely on partnership and advice.
