Eurofins announces the inauguration of its Nantes laboratory extension turning it into the largest single-site independent food testing laboratory in the world
The project was part of Eurofins’ recently-concluded investment programme to bring the majority of its network into large and modern world class laboratories. The Nantes site incorporates the latest state-of-the-art technology, combined with analysis and automation tools developed in-house to ensure high sample throughput in optimal conditions. The benefits should be reflected in high quality testing analysis with short turn-around-times (TAT) for customers, and increased efficiency, and hence profitability, for the Group.
Eurofins Nantes also offers a unique concentration of complementary know-how and technologies in food testing to assure the safety, identity, composition, authenticity, origin and purity of food and feed products. The wide range of analytical methods and technologies used in the laboratory include nutritional chemistry and molecular biology (GMOs, allergens), mass spectrometry, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, DNA sequencing, etc. This comprehensive breadth of service offering is exceptional for a single-site food testing laboratory, and provides the Group with a compelling suite of services to offer to both new and existing clients.
François Vigneau, General Manager for Eurofins Food Testing in France, comments: “Eurofins is proud to have completed this project as planned. This was achieved through our commitment to our vision of excellence in our field, and with the collaboration of the local community. We are indeed in a fortunate position to be able to leverage this unique facility for the benefit of our customers, and continue to support the growth of the Eurofins Group.”
