Food and Beverage LIMS
Pre-packaged LIMS for the highly specialized needs of F&B labs
Ensure product safety and compliance, minimize risk, while delivering innovation and speed
Full accountability is essential for Food and Beverage companies. Whether canning soup, packaging nuts, or formulating new beverage flavors, food and beverage manufacturers need LIMS solutions to manage the end-to-end research, batch management, and quality control testing to ensure food safety across a global supply chain.
LabVantage Food & Beverage LIMS enforces the unique quality requirements of food and beverage organizations, including data traceability, shelf-life testing, analytics, and batch sample testing to ensure continuous compliance with global regulatory requirements such as HACCP, US FDA, and GxP. This keeps production lines moving efficiently.
The purpose-built LIMS is highly configurable with the ease of drag-and-drop to create workflows. Without coding, set milestone testing to match your product line, types of tests required, and compliance requirements, including any reporting needed for exports or monitoring of environment conditions such as refrigeration and humidity.
