The WIBERG Laboratory
Internal analyses
Raw materials, unfinished and finished products are examined directly in our internal, modern laboratory. We deal with pathogenic microorganisms, aflatoxins and other allergens ourselves! Our independence from other laboratories means that we can act quickly and efficiently on a case-by-case basis.
As a result, we can guarantee the stringent examination of every batch of raw materials. Our deep-founded knowledge of all kinds of herbs, spices, additives and aromas is based on 4,500 raw-material analyses every year. Furthermore, every mixture is inspected and actively approved before leaving the premises.
