In the agri-food sector, discussing quality cannot be separated from safety . Consumers today are increasingly attentive and informed, demanding transparency. They want to know what they're putting on their table, where it comes from, and how it was produced. Faced with this growing awareness, the answer can only be one: investing in control, responsibility, and traceability .
Precisely for this reason, on our farm we have chosen to equip ourselves with an internal laboratory with CE certified equipment , an essential tool to ensure that every product that leaves our supply chain is healthy, safe and compliant with European regulations .
What is the CE Marking?
The CE (Conformité Européenne) marking is an indication of compliance with European regulations regarding safety, hygiene, health, and environmental protection. When we talk about a laboratory equipped with CE-marked equipment, it means that:
-
The tools used comply with rigorous technical standards;
-
The analyses carried out are scientifically reliable ;
-
The results obtained can also be used for official or certification purposes.
In our case, the CE laboratory represents the guarantee that every control carried out within our farm is conducted according to precise criteria, recognised at European level .
Why a CE-Marked Laboratory is Essential for Food Safety
Food safety isn't an abstract concept: it's a daily practice involving testing, verification, traceability, and prevention . Having an in-house laboratory, compliant with EC directives, allows us to:
1. Control the entire supply chain, from field to table
Thanks to the laboratory, we can analyze raw materials, semi-finished products, and finished products. This allows us to intervene promptly in the event of anomalies, before the product reaches the consumer.
2. Monitor microbiological, chemical and physical risks
We carry out regular checks for any contamination by bacteria, pesticides, heavy metals, allergens, or foreign bodies, drastically reducing the risk margins.
3. Speed up response times
With an in-house laboratory, we can obtain rapid results, avoiding long wait times for external laboratories. This means greater efficiency and timely decision-making .
4. Ensure regulatory compliance
All analyses carried out with CE instruments have legal value and help us demonstrate compliance with Italian and European regulations, including HACCP requirements and controls by the ASL or certification bodies.
Our Commitment: Quality and Responsibility
We wanted our laboratory to be certified and equipped with the best technologies because we believe in transparent, clean, and traceable agriculture. Every analysis we perform is a concrete demonstration of our commitment to those who choose our products.
It's not just an obligation: for us, it's a valuable choice . A guarantee for those who buy our products, but also a way to sleep soundly, knowing that what we produce is truly good and safe .
A Choice for Health, Nature and People
In our industry, customer trust is everything . And trust is earned not with words, but with actions. Our CE laboratory is one of these actions: it's the heart of our quality system. It allows us to be more precise, more transparent, more competitive, but above all, more responsible towards people and the environment .
