Worried you might forget to book a vital test? Keen to know the selection of tests we recommend as a minimum requirement for quality management?
We now offer a range of annual Quality Assurance Packages which will provide you and your customers with the quality assurance and legal compliance you need to brew and sell with confidence.
Testing is important to evidence your commitment to the highest quality standards and preventing food safety risk. It demonstrates that you care about your product, customer and business; that you take a proactive rather than reactive approach to quality control!
Our new Quality Assurance Packages have been developed following feedback from you, the brewers! They take the stress out of quality management, because we take care of everything for you. It’s simple, you send in pre-labelled bottles when a sample is required, which you fill up as relevant and send back to us. Then, just keep an eye out for your detailed report, which will arrive in your inbox in a maximum of 10 working days from receipt of your sample(s). All reports are sent via email unless otherwise requested.
What’s included in a Quality Assurance Package?
We offer a bespoke service to help suit your brewery. Each feature the core quality assurance and food-safety analyses you require and will be tailored to your recipes and brewery.
