For over 50 years, Mérieux NutriSciences has leveraged its scientific and entrepreneurial expertise to meet the needs of the food industry.
Today’s global challenges transform the way food is produced, marketed and consumed. Mérieux NutriSciences’ clients need more than reliable analytical results. They need customizable, innovative and high-quality solutions that will contribute to making food systems safer, healthier and more sustainable.
Mérieux NutriSciences is a complete player offering a very wide range of solutions: consultancy to identify, manage and anticipate risks; analytical services to detect the possible presence of contaminants and anticipate non-quality incidents; regulatory services to verify product compliance and claims; analysis of the environmental footprint of products and packaging, and much more.
The company and its employees are focused on the same objective: BETTER FOOD. BETTER HEALTH. BETTER WORLD.
BETTER FOOD. Because the company has a strong and recognized expertise in food safety and quality.
BETTER HEALTH. Because the food we eat, and especially the safety of food, has a very direct impact on our health.
BETTER WORLD. Because one of mankind’s greatest challenges ahead of us is how to feed 10 billion human beings without destroying our planet.
