Market Overview

Food safety testing is a scientific method for determining the safety of food based on microbiological, physical, or chemical properties. Food safety testing is an important part of the supply chain that ensures the food is safe for human consumption. The Italy food safety testing market is being driven by increased consumer awareness of food safety, conditions involving chemical contamination, and faster inspection. The quality of products is also improving as a result of regulatory changes aimed at reducing the number of people suffering from foodborne illnesses such as nausea, food poisoning, and diarrhea. The Food Standards Agency distinguishes between two types of food fraud: selling potentially dangerous and unsuitable food at retail and purposeful mislabeling of food. Also, with an exponentially growing population and increasing demand for ready-to-eat food products, food safety testing services are in high demand in Italy. The requirement to follow various food safety policies pushes the market even further. Technological and technique innovations, such as molecular screening with PCR-based assays, are used to identify and eliminate potential contamination risks in food.
