Our proximate analysis services lets you assess the nutritional value of your food and animal feed while satisfying the appropriate health and safety regulations.

Our proximate analysis testing incorporates wet chemistry methods. This allows us to firstly separate, then identify, the categories of compounds present in a mixture. Our analysts are looking for and analysing protein, fat, moisture, ash and fibre in your food and feed to help assess its nutritional value.

Approved and accredited laboratories

Eurofins Food & Feed Testing scientists and technicians have years of laboratory experience and qualifications in chemistry and microbiology. Our laboratories have also earned the approval of several feed associations.

By adhering to the highest industry and global governance standards, our proximate analysis services ensure that your animal feed inspires confidence and that feed rations meet producers' needs.
