By operating in accordance with various accreditations and approvals, we demonstrate impartial and consistent business practices and prove our ability to carry out reliable laboratory tests. Our wide range of services means we are involved in the entire process: from food production right through to consumption. This is quite unique within our field.

At Normec Robalab, we understand the specific needs of diverse sectors and work closely with our clients to ensure that the correct analyses are carried out. Your success is our goal, which is why we strive to provide the insights and results needed to make informed decisions and optimise processes.

Our working method is based on various accreditations, authorisations and recognitions. For example, Normec Robalab is accredited by the Dutch Accreditation Council (RvA) in accordance with the NEN-EN-ISO/IEC 17025 (L264) standard. This demonstrates that our analyses are carried out professionally, consistently and independently in accordance with internationally recognised quality standards. Within this accreditation, we carry out, among other things, AP05 activities (animal manure accreditation programme), as well as microbiological analyses, soil investigations and nematode analyses.

In addition, Normec Robalab holds an ASLN authorisation from Naktuinbouw for laboratory testing of soil and plant material. This ensures we meet the applicable requirements within the agricultural and horticultural sectors and deliver reliable and reproducible test results.

With our RHP accreditation, we are authorised to carry out nematological analyses on potting soil and substrates. This accreditation confirms that our work meets the quality standards within the substrate and potting soil sector.

We also carry out zoonotic Salmonella testing within the poultry sector under NVWA accreditation. This ensures we meet the applicable requirements for monitoring and control within the livestock sector. In addition, we carry out (livestock) drinking water testing under HOSOWO certification from KIWA. This ensures that analyses are carried out in accordance with the applicable guidelines for water quality and hygiene within the agricultural sector.

Increasing focus by retailers on soil analysis

Numerous aspects in the soil help determine how a crop develops. There is a lot of attention to the amounts of nitrogen and potassium present in the soil. Nitrogen is one of the most important nutrients for the plant, ensuring the growth and green color of the crop. To determine if sufficient nitrogen is present, you need to perform N-mineral analyses. There is also increasing attention to these analyses from retailers. Retailers want to check whether there is a risk of nitrate leaching and would like to reduce this risk. Thus, there are chain concepts that require affiliated growers to have N-mineral samples taken by an accredited laboratory. Normec Robalab, part of Normec Foodcare, is one of the Dutch accredited laboratories that performs these samplings and analyses.
