Laboratory

The sustained expansion of the Aquaculture sector stresses the need to monitor and control water quality parameters affecting health and welfare of aquatic species.

Not only water but final products and raw materials used in the process, as well as aquatic facilities must be externally monitored in order to retain advantage in an increasingly competitive environment.

With our Laboratory we offer a professional tool for the comprehensive control of these parameters, both for small and large scale operations.

Accredited by the Consellería de Sanidade of the Xunta de Galicia (Nº 46/GA/SA680A), the Laboratory has been certified ISO 9001:2000 (No EC-3641/08), ensuring all analytical tests are carried out by standardized methods (ISO Standard Methods, AOAC, AFNOR, etc.) and under strictly professional protocols.
