Recalls due to metal or plastic? Microscopy offers a solution

  • 23 June 2025

Foreign particles in food remain a sensitive issue—especially when it involves metal or plastic. These types of findings can quickly lead to recalls, headaches, and reputational damage. Getting clarity fast is essential. In such cases, microscopic analysis can make all the difference. Nutrilab supports producers and consumers with sharp insights and extensive experience.

What the naked eye can’t see

Have you found a suspicious piece in a product? Microscopy reveals structures you wouldn’t normally notice. It may be a traditional technique, but it remains a powerful tool in practice.

Quick clarity during recalls

Recalls are becoming increasingly common, particularly when hard or non-degradable particles are involved. Microscopic analysis can be a game-changer, providing usable information in a short amount of time about foreign materials. (This also includes glass, insects, or stray seeds.)

Nutrilab’s role

Nutrilab is recognised as a specialist in food safety. Their microscopic analyses help producers meet all requirements while giving consumers added peace of mind. “At Nutrilab, our goal is to enhance food safety through precise and reliable microscopic analysis,” the company states.
