Fruit and vegetables

Sectors

Fruit and vegetables must meet strict safety, hygiene and quality standards before reaching consumers. At QTI Services, we offer fast and accredited testing to detect pesticide residues, verify nutritional values and identify potential contaminants such as viruses or microbes.

Our laboratory provides a wide range of analyses including organic residue testing, nutritional profiling and microbiological screening, all focused on ensuring food safety and compliance with standards such as GlobalGAP and QS.

Given the perishable nature of fresh produce, rapid analysis is essential. That is why we operate 24 hours a day to help you guarantee safe and high quality fruit and vegetables from farm to shelf.
