Herbs and spices describe a group of flavoring or odor-giving ingredients for food. The group of herbs and spices includes a diverse number of products that are usually produced from different parts (e. g. leaves, roots, fruits) of several plants. Herbs and spices that are sold in the EU have to comply with the relevant European requirements, so testing on quality parameters, residues, contaminants and further parameters is an important part of quality assurance along the supply chain.

Besides Camellia sinensis, several other plants are used to produce tea, especially in products known as herbal teas or fruit teas. All types of tea that are sold in the EU have to comply with the relevant European requirements, so testing on quality parameters, residues, contaminants and further parameters is an important part of quality assurance along the supply chain. We will gladly support you with our extensive service portfolio for the analysis of your tea products.
