Obtain rheology and texture measurements for your products

Rheology and texture play a critical role in the manufacturing, distribution, handling, and overall quality of products across diverse industries, providing valuable insights for product developers and manufacturers by helping evaluate formulation performance, processing behavior, and end-user experience. These measurements – such as those related to cost-reduction strategies or supplier variations – are essential for assessing the impact of changes in raw materials or packaging, guiding new product development, correlating with sensory perception, monitoring shelf-life stability, and supporting the use of novel or functional ingredients. In addition to instrumental testing, we offer sensory analysis, with our objective testing extending beyond additional sensory evaluation to deliver quantifiable insights that enhance product development and quality assessment.
